Police destroy drugs

In a recent crackdown, confiscated drugs worth between K1 and K2 million were destroyed in a bonfire. The exhibits, which included marijuana, homemade guns, and ammunition, were seized from offenders between March and November 2022.

Despite being overdue for destruction, the officials ensured that these items were destroyed in a safe manner, with guns and ammunition being dumped in the sea.

Reportedly, the authorities had convicted 32 offenders for possessing drugs between March and November last year, with prison sentences ranging from three to 10 years.
