A 21-year-old Forde man was arrested and charged overnight by police for drug trafficking.
Criminal Investigations detectives executed a search warrant at the man’s house around 3.30pm yesterday (Thursday, August 4), and seized over 700 pills suspected to be MDMA and some cannabis. An amount of cash was also seized during the search warrant.
The potential street value for the seized drugs is estimated to be in excess of $20,000.
The man was arrested and taken to the ACT Watch House, where he was charged with traffic in cannabis, traffic in a controlled drug other than cannabis, and possession of property suspected of being proceeds of crime.
He will face the ACT Magistrates Court this morning (Friday, August 5), where bail will be opposed.
