Kraaifontein members arrested a 16-year-old youth for dealing in drugs today in Essenhout, Street, Belmont Park.
The members were attending to a complaint received regarding a person dealing in drugs. After questioning the residents, the SAPS members were led to one of the bedrooms in the residence where a plastic bag containing four smaller bags, containing 384 mandrax tablets worth a street value of more than R11 000-00 were discovered.

The male suspect was searched at Bellville and 500grams of cocaine with an estimated street value of R200 000 was found in his possession.
