Glenara was driving the Honda Fit with Chari on the passenger seat when they fled, only to be blocked by the police at the intersection of Samora Machel Avenue and Rekai Tangwena Street.
A search on the vehicle resulted in the recovery of four sachets of crystal methamphetamine from underneath the car’s lever cover, leading to the arrest of the duo, who later implicated Mapara.
Detectives searched Mapara’s house and recovered two sachets of the crystal methamphetamine drug and 108g of dagga.
The recovered crystal methamphetamine drugs have a value of $177 905 while dagga was worth $9 000.
The magistrate remanded them to Monday for bail ruling.
