Two drug dealers stashed 80 kgs of weed in a coffin and
posed as funeral parlour employees on the road.
In the early hours of Saturday morning, police officers in
Pongola, KwaZulu-Natal, were manning a roadblock when they noticed an
approaching vehicle pull over and switch off its lights.
The officers approached the vehicle and the two men inside
informed the police that they were employed by a funeral parlour and were
transporting a corpse, police spokesperson Brigadier Jay Naicker said.
"A search was conducted and police uncovered 30
concealed packets of dagga inside the coffin. The total stash weighed in at
80kg. The suspects were immediately arrested and detained at the Pongola police
station for possession of dagga," said Naicker.
