Methamphetamine with an estimated street value of approximately $100,000, along with two handguns and ammunition have been seized following a targeted Police operation in Marlborough.
A 39-year-old man appeared in the Blenheim District Court this week in relation to the seizures. He’s been remanded and will reappear on 24 August.
He is facing charges relating to the possession and supply of methamphetamine, as well as unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition.
“The seizure represents a significant disruption to the supply of methamphetamine in the Marlborough community and highlights Police’s ongoing efforts to target organised criminal activity”, said Detective Senior Sergeant Michael Whitty.
“Police remain committed to targeting those involved in the supply of illicit drugs and holding offenders accountable, while reducing the harm these substances cause within our communities.
“Anyone with information relating to the supply of illicit drugs or the unlawful possession of firearms is encouraged to contact Police on 105 or provide information anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.”
This person needs to be trespassed from Marlborough
If found guilty
Methamphetamine which is highly addictive needs to be stamped out and eradicated
You don’t need scum like this floating around
Which eventually leads to breeding crime
Isn’t that where the Freedom party is based?
Asking for a friend.
