Kimberley – Four suspects are expected to appear in the Colesberg Magistrate's Court on Thursday on a charge of alleged drug dealing after they were caught in possession of mandrax worth R10 million, Northern Cape police said in a statement on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, police seized the mandrax tablets during a roadblock on the N1 highway near Colesberg.
The men, aged between 25 and 40, were travelling in two separate cars from Johannesburg to Cape Town.
