Police say they have seized R300 million worth of drugs in Fourways, north of Johannesburg and have rescued a kidnapped businessman.

National Police Spokesperson, Brigadier, Athlenda Mathe says this is a culmination of a kidnapping case they have been working on: “On the the 5th of July, we had a businessman who was kidnapped in the Roodepoort area. A team was immediately assembled and started working on this particular case to rescue the victim. A week ago, we arrested two suspects. The suspects then led us to the drug bust where we arrested six more suspects on Wednesday.

We also made a discovery of drugs worth an estimated street value of R300 million. So, we picked up the drugs from various parts of Johannesburg.” Any cookies that may not be particularly necessary for the website to function and is used specifically to collect user personal data via analytics, ads, other embedded contents are termed as non-necessary cookies.
