The officers had launched an operation against drugs trafficking before they intercepted the bhang.

“The person carrying it panicked when he came across police officers and managed to escape in a nearby thicket,” he said.

Both bhang and the bike were taken to Kwale police station. Police have launched a manhunt for the escapee.

Bhang loaded on a motorbike after it was seized by police at Mteza in Matuga on Saturday, October 17, 2020.

The incident comes some months after police burnt 15 sacks of Miraa worth Sh100, 000.

The drug was recovered in Lunga-Lunga and damaged for violating the ban against the selling of Miraa due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The county police boss asked the locals to stem up the fight against drug trafficking.
