CELESTINE CHIMAOBI Emienze (37) from Park Rynie Convent Road was arrested for being in possession of drugs.
He made his first appearance in the Scottburgh Magistrates’ Court on June 29 for the unlawful possession and his case was postponed until July 13 and further to Monday, July 17.
It is alleged that on Wednesday, June 28, police acted on information received and intercepted a vehicle on the R102 Old Main Road in Scottburgh at about 3.45pm.
Not finding anything in the vehicle, they accompanied the driver of the vehicle to his residence in Convent Road, Park Rynie where they allegedly found and seized various tablets and powders suspected to be heroin, crystal meth, rock, ecstasy and cocaine.
It was established during the arrest that Emienze’s passport had expired in January last year and this was reported to the immigrations officer.
The substances suspected to be drugs have been forwarded to the forensic science laboratory for analysis to establish if they are indeed drugs and if so, what classification of drugs.
The case is being investigated by Detective Warrant Officer Strini Maistry of the Scottburgh SAPS Detective Service.
