A Tactical Intelligence Operation was executed by the Belabela Crime Intelligence Unit, Modimolle Crime Prevention and Public Order Policing (POPS) after receiving a tip-off about a female suspect who was on the way to distribute dagga in Modimolle policing area under Waterberg District and the teams immediately traced the suspect.
Subsequently, the suspect was intercepted in the area at about 18:00 while driving a silver grey Volkswagen VW Fox motor vehicle in possession of the dagga which was to be distributed in the area.
The suspect who it is believed she is originating from Nelspruit in Mpumalanga Province was immediately placed under arrest for dealing in dagga.
