The men one of whom is reported to be Zimbabwean, were caught in Booysens, Johannesburg as announced by Metro police on Sunday. This comes as 7 other Zimbabweans were arrested barely 4 weeks ago in the same city for the same offence of putting up penis enlargement posters.
“[The JMPD] arrested two men on Saturday at about 2pm after one man was caught red-handed pasting illegal penis enlargement posters onto traffic light poles,” said Chief Superintendent Wayne Minnaar.
The man was arrested at an intersection on Heronmere Road and Booysen Road and led the police to a house where the illegal substance was found.
“The first suspect led officials to a house in Booysens where the illegal medicine was being made. It’s being sold for R300 per container. A second suspect was arrested there,” Minnaar said.
Police also found counterfeit R100 notes in their possession.
The two men, aged 30 and 33, were both foreign nationals one of them is reported to be a Zimbabwean citizen.
Jo’Burg police on Monday refused to divulge their names however.
Apart from the medication matter, they were also charged with damage to municipal property, and possession of counterfeit bank notes.
They will appear in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court (today) Monday. – SAPA
