Police raid a house and find two stolen cars and dagga

TWO stolen vehicles and dagga worth an estimated value of R2-million were discovered at a house in Soshanguve, north of Pretoria, yesterday, police said.

Spokeswoman Captain Pinky Tsinyane said police were acting on a tip-off when they raided the house at 4am.

"In the main house there were about 85 bags of dagga which were packed in different rooms. All the goods, worth an estimated R2-million, were confiscated," she said.

The cars, a Toyota Hilux and Fortuner, had been reported stolen at the Wierdabrug and Brooklyn police stations.

The main house, which allegedly belongs to an old man who moved out due to ill-health, was empty during the raid.

A 23-year-old woman who occupies an outside room was taken in for questioning.
