06 July 2015 - NW2479
Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police
(1)What are the reasons for the Edenvale Police Station’s refusal to raid a known drug den (details furnished); (2) whether he will give an instruction for such a raid to take place; if not, why not; if so, when?
Reply:
- The house is occupied by different tenants from different counties and has been reported to EMPD that they can raid the place for overcrowding. It was raided for drugs by SAPS but nothing was found.
(2) The address has been given to EMPD for overcrowding. A joint operation between SAPS and EMPD has been arranged for execution.
