VIMBAINASHE Magurei (40) was arrested and charged for allegedly dealing in illicit drugs and selling unregistered medicines.
Detectives from the CID Drugs received a tip-off that Magurei was operating her drug empire at Shamrock Court in Eastlea.
The cops conducted surveillance in which they saw a number of youths moving up and downstairs.
When they went to the first floor, they saw a metal door with a small opening.
They peeped through and saw Magurei packing satchets of dagga.
They knocked on the door, but she refused to open, prompting them to break it down to gain entry.
After identifying themselves, the detectives conducted a body search and found five satchets of crystal methamphetamine.
Further searches were conducted and 19×100mls broncleer cough syrup, 24×100mls Benylin cough syrup, and 62 satchets of dagga were found.
She was subsequently arrested and taken to CID Drugs where the drugs were weighed.
In total, the value of the seized goods was $8 million. Magurei is expected back in court on July 18 for her bail ruling.
