R1 BILLION DRUG LAB BUST! 13 Suspects Including Foreign Nationals Appear in Court

Thirteen suspects linked to an alleged R1 billion clandestine drug manufacturing operation appeared in the Swartruggens Magistrate’s Court in the North West.

The accused face serious charges including drug manufacturing, illegal possession of hazardous chemicals, firearm-related offences and immigration law violations.

The arrests followed a major Hawks-led intelligence-driven operation where authorities uncovered a suspected methamphetamine laboratory and seized large quantities of drugs, chemicals, manufacturing equipment and firearms.

Among the accused are foreign nationals from Mexico, Mozambique and Zimbabwe, while investigators continue probing possible international cartel connections.

The case has been postponed to 12 June for bail applications as all suspects remain in custody.
