Two men appeared in the Germiston Magistrate's Court on Friday after they allegedly tried to send a heroin shipment, disguised as documents, to the United Kingdom. According to Hawks spokesman Captain Ndivhuwo Mulamu, the men dropped off the package at a courier company in Edenvale on Monday. "The consignment was destined [for] an address in the United Kingdom," Mulamu said. The courier company called the Hawks' Serious Organised Crime Investigation team in Germiston. "Upon arrival and further inspection of the suspected package, the investigation team found 315 grams of suspected heroin concealed in an envelope," Mulamu said.
