The suspect was nabbed on Thursday after the police’s Anti-Gang Unit members reacted to intelligence at around 3.40 pm and conducted a search operation at a residence in Lentegeur, Mitchells Plain.
Police spokesperson Colonel Andrè Traut said the woman was expected to appear in the Mitchells Plain Magistrate’s Court on Monday, on charges of dealing in drugs.

Police spokesperson Captain Frederick van Wyk said the suspect was arrested on Monday after police received a tip-off about contraband that would have been smuggled into Voorbrug Prison.
“The members executed a search at the indicated premises in Bevan Street, Greenhaven, Manenberg and seized 385 mandrax tablets, 10kg of dagga, five grams of cocaine, 10 cellphones with batteries, and 35 sim cards,” Van Wyk said in a statement.
