The endeavours of SAPS to tackle the lucrative illegal abalone trade in the Western Cape and to break the back of the smuggling syndicates have paid off with significant success on Sunday afternoon, 27 August 2017.
At about 16:15 members of Operation Combat and the Department of Agriculture, Forest and Fisheries were busy with a crime intelligence driven operation in Marine Drive, Hawston.
On arrival in Marine Drive, the members spotted a white Toyota Hilux LDV with Reg CA654720, standing in the bushes.
As the members got closer to the vehicle, they noticed a man busy offloading bags from the vehicle.
When the man saw the marked police vehicles he tried to run away but officials were able to apprehend him.
Upon inspecting the bags, the members found that they were filled with abalone. 14 bags were found on the scene with a combined mass of 500kg and an estimated street value of R900 000. An 8 meter rubber duck boat with diving gear was also found.
