A drug dealer was stopped in his tracks yesterday when members attached to Operation Prosper arrested a 45-year-old man in Delft.
The suspect was pulled over during a stop and search operation in Buczane Street, N2 Gateway. The South African Police Service (SAPS) says following a search of his vehicle, several mandrax tablets and money were found in his possession.
“They stopped and searched a silver Honda Civic vehicle and the occupant and found ten mandrax tablets and an undisclosed amount of cash believed to be the proceeds of crime in the vehicle.”
SAPS confirmed that further investigation led to the seizure of drugs worth over R2 million in Stikland, Bellville.
“At the facility the members found 46 packs containing 1000 mandrax tablets each and a total of 46 000 units of mandrax tablets, with an estimated street value of R2 760 000,00.”
The suspect is set to appear in the Bellville Magistrates’ Court once charged.
Meanwhile, in the early hours of this morning, a 51-year-old man was arrested for drug possession and drug dealing.
His arrest comes after the Anti-Economic Crime Task Team in collaboration with the Counterfeit and Illicit Goods Policing Team acted on a tip-off received about suspected drug activities at a residence in Milnerton.
SAPS says 1000 mandrax tablets were found at the house.
The suspect will appear in the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court once formally charged.

Support for EFF leader Julius Malema extends beyond national borders, with protesters in New York and London opposing his sentence.
Malema was last week sentenced to five years’ imprisonment for discharging a firearm at an EFF rally in 2018, and his legal team is currently working on an appeal.

Much like his local supporters, members of workers’ movements, such as the Partisan Defense Committee and the Spartacist League, rejected the sentence.
The groups held small “Hands Off Julius Malema” protests outside the South African consulate in New York City as well as the South African Embassy in London.

They believe Malema was sentenced to prison in response to demands by US President Donald Trump to do so. Trump had previously referenced Malema and his party in relation to his claims of a “white genocide”.
A speaker with the Partisan Defence Committee in Britain called for “the united defence” of Malema, because he believes that is a way that South Africans can fight back against, especially, American imperialism.
At tonight’s demo in front of the South African Embassy in London, the speaker for @WorkersHammer makes it clear why the so-called Government of National Unity is threatening to lock up EFF leader @Julius_S_Malema
United front action is vital in fighting back against the attacks… pic.twitter.com/F5rUeTRtp1— Partisan Defence Committee/Britain (@PDCBritain) April 16, 2026
