Officers from the Katlehong police visited Eketsang Secondary School, in Ramakonopi East, last Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Police were joined by representatives from Boksburg Correctional Services, the Department of Community Safety and Department of Education.<\/p>
During the visit, a number of crime-related issues were addressed and many learners searched.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe search yielded fruitful results as a number of the children who were searched were allegedly found in possession of illegal substances, including ntash and dagga,\u201d said Katlehong SAPS corporate communications officer Const Sivenkosi Mtwa.<\/p>
During questioning, the learners gave police vital information which led to the arrest of two alleged drug dealers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe two suspects were arrested while allegedly busy selling drugs on the street,\u201d said Mtwa.<\/p>\n
Katlehong SAPS acting station commander Col Doctor Sibuyi appealed to the community not to be afraid and to come forward with the names of alleged drug dealers in the area.<\/p>\n
