Police arrested 211 suspects in connection with drug-related offenses during the month of September.

Of those arrested, 202 were Namibians, while the rest included two Angolans, one Burundian, one Tanzanian, and five Zambians.

The drugs seized during this period included cannabis, mandrax, cocaine powder, and crack cocaine.

Namibian Police spokesperson Kauna Shikwambi urged the public to stand together against illicit drug use and to report such incidents to the authorities.
