Police in Aberdeen have arrested a suspected drug dealer as part of their ongoing campaign against narcotics. The operation, led by Inspector Koroma and overseen by Local Unit Commander CSP N’gobeh, targeted the sale and consumption of kush, a type of marijuana.

On July 4th, officers apprehended Hassan Conteh from Last Banking after a carefully planned operation. Conteh, identified as a prominent figure in the local drug trade, was found with over two hundred suspected wraps of kush.

The public applauded the police for their swift action, highlighting the community’s support for efforts to curb drug trafficking. Sierra Leoneans praised the department’s proactive approach to tackling this issue.

The Aberdeen Police Division remains committed to upholding the Sierra Leone Police’s reputation by making drug sales a high-risk activity. Their ongoing efforts have reportedly kept Aberdeen and its surrounding areas calm and safe.
