Free State police have arrested three suspects and confiscated drugs with an estimated street value of R1-million in Bloemfontein.

Spokesperson, Colonel Thandi Mbambo says two foreign nationals, aged 38 and 40 and a 27-year old woman, were arrested after their vehicle was searched at a roadblock on Saturday.

She says police members found pieces of Crystal Methamphetamine inside the vehicle and officers had a suspicion that more drugs could be found at the driver's place of residence.

They asked the man to lead them to his home, and upon arrival at a flat in Raymond Mhlaba Street, drugs were found in various plastic wrappings stashed away in a closet.

Mbambo says CAT weighing 1.9 kg, crystal meth, rock, cocaine and Thai White drugs were confiscated.

The three suspects will appear in court on Monday.
