While following a lead on a stolen laptop, on Wednesday, officers from the Ekurhuleni Flying Squad (Germiston) arrested a 34-year-old woman on a charge of drug possession.<\/p>\n
\u201cOfficers noticed the woman while they were in Willow Road, Primrose,\u201d explained Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.<\/p>
\u201cThe woman allegedly panicked when she saw them and that made the officers suspicious and they approached her.\u201d<\/p>\n
The officers found a white substance they believed to be drugs in a small black box she was holding.<\/p>
\u201cWhen asked what the substance was the woman reportedly confessed that it was drugs for her own use,\u201d said Maome.<\/p>\n
She was arrested and taken to the Primrose Police Station.<\/p>\n
She has since appeared in the Germiston Magistrate\u2019s Court where her case was postponed for plea and trial.<\/p>\n
