Four arrested after illicit drug lab worth R2 billion discovered in Limpopo

Four suspects have been arrested and large quantities of chemicals used in the manufacturing of illicit drugs as well as crystal m**h worth R2 billion were recovered in an operation by the Hawks and SAPS. Picture: Supplied

Police Minister, Senzo Mchunu, on Saturday welcomed the arrest of four people after a drug lab was discovered in Groblersdal by a joint team of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (known as the Hawks) and the SA Police Service (SAPS) in Limpopo.

“It is reported that the Hawks in Limpopo received information about suspicious activities taking place at the farm, which was then operationalised and the multi-disciplinary team pounced,” police ministry spokesperson Kamogelo Mokgotsi and Hawks national spokesperson Colonel Katlego Mogale said in a statement.

They said four structures on the property were searched and large quantities of chemicals used in the manufacturing of illicit drugs including acetone as well as crystal m**h with an estimated street value of R2 billion were recovered.

“In the continuing war against drugs by the Hawks, four suspects including the farm owner and two Mexican nationals were arrested on July 19 in an intelligence driven operation by members of Limpopo Serious Organised Crime Investigation (SOCI) team assisted by the Limpopo Tactical Response Team at a farm in Groblersdal where a multi million clandestine laboratory was discovered.”

Since the start of the year, the Hawks uncovered 10 clandestine drug laboratories and made 34 arrests, they said.
As the investigation continues, the arrested suspects expected to make their first appearance in the Groblersdal Magistrate’s Court on the July 22.

The four suspects will be facing charges of manufacturing, dealing and possession of illicit drugs.

The Hawks have not ruled out the possibility of more suspects being arrested.

2023 NSC matric pass rate climbs to 82.9% in South Africa
Staff Writer
·18 Jan 2024

The Department of Basic Education has published the final National Senior Certificate (NSC) results for the 2023 matric year, showing a 2.8 percentage point increase in the pass rate to 82.9%.

Speaking during an address to the nation on 18 January 2024, the basic education minister Angie Motshekga, said that the 2023 cohort was the most resilient yet, facing various challenges such as load shedding, and dealing with the continued fallout from Covid-19.

For the past ten years, the NSC pass rate has been going up from 60% in 2009 to over 80% to date, and the matric class of 2023 maintained this trend despite the astronomical challenges, said Motshekga.

She said the increase to 82.9% marks the highest since democracy.

According to the department, over 897,000 matrics registered to take the exams last year. Of these, 80% (715,000) were full-time candidates.

The number of bachelor passes increased by 10.6%, and the number of diploma passes also improved. She added bachelor passes have tripled since 2008.

Out of the 2023 matric class, 40.9% of students achieved a bachelor’s pass, 27.2% achieved a diploma pass, and 14.8% achieved a higher certificate pass. This class faced significant challenges due to the Covid-19 pandemic, starting in their grade 9 year in 2020.

The minister of fifteen years detailed the size and scope of the matric examinations, listing the following figures:

897,000 candidates wrote the exams
162 question papers were set
More than 10.4 million question papers were printed
72,000 invigilators were placed across the country
52,000 markers
Fewer students (897,000) wrote in 2023 than in 2022 (920,000), Motshekga said.

Motshekga said that all provinces improved with the following results (including progressed learners):

Free State: 89%
KZN: 86.4%
Gauteng: 85.4%
North West: 81.6%
Western Cape: 81.5%
Eastern Cape: 81.4%
Limpopo: 79.5%
Mpumalanga: 77%
Northern Cape: 75.8%
