KwaZulu-Natal police arrested 14 suspects following a raid on a five-hectare dagga plantation in Springfield near Babanango, northern KwaZulu-Natal. Among those detained, 10 were foreign nationals from Eswatini. The plantation was disguised as a vegetable farm. During the operation, authorities also seized South African National Defence Force (SANDF) uniforms and weapons. In related law enforcement actions, police in Cape Town confiscated mandrax tablets valued at over R700,000 in Malibu Village near Blue Downs. Separately, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) secured court orders to preserve Kitale School land in Kenya valued at Ksh 50 million, preventing fraudulent subdivision and transfer. Additionally, a provisional certificate of title was deposited in court to block fraudulent claims on 2,500 acres of Keekonyoike Maasai Trust land, following an irregular court order.
