๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ• Another Hit Against Drugs on Our Streets

Recently, members of the Provincial Drugs and Fi***rm Unit, supported by the Excellerate K9 Unit, conducted an operation at an identified premises in Umlazi suspected of being used for drug dealing.

The suspect had fled before police arrived and is believed to have been tipped off. But what was left behind told its own story. A search of the premises resulted in the recovery of:

๐Ÿ”น 14 packets of co***ne powder
๐Ÿ”น 196 assorted ecstasy tablets
๐Ÿ”น R18,500 in cash

The recovered drugs had an estimated street value of R21,600.

A subsequent search of the surrounding area for the suspect was unsuccessful. All recovered items were secured and handed over to Umlazi SAPS as part of the ongoing investigation.

๐Ÿ‘ We are proud to support our SAPS colleagues and specialist units in operations that help take drugs off our streets and make our communities safer.

For the Excellerate K9 Unit, it is another example of what can be achieved when specialist capability, intelligence and strong law-enforcement partnerships come together.

๐Ÿพ The nose knows. And the work continues.

On 17 August, the Excellerate K9 team joined forces with the Provincial Drugs and Fi***rm Unit for an operation at a hotel building in Merebank.

What followed was a serious find. ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿšจ 600 pieces of rock co***ne recovered
๐Ÿ’ฐ Estimated drug value: R30,000
๐Ÿ”ซ 14 live rounds of am******on recovered

The exhibits were secured and handed over to SAPS in accordance with evidence procedures.

This is what a trained K9 capability brings to the fight against crime - instinct, training and a nose thatโ€™s impossible to fool. ๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Behind every successful deployment is a dedicated handler, a highly trained K9 and countless hours of preparation.

๐Ÿ‘ Outstanding work by the Provincial Drugs and Fi***rm Unit and the Excellerate K9 team.

When the nose goes to work, hiding places get a whole lot smaller. ๐Ÿพ
