    A 25-year-old West Otago man is facing a raft of charges relating to the sale and supply of illegal drugs throughout the lower South Island

    A 25-year-old West Otago man is facing a raft of charges relating to the sale and supply of illegal drugs throughout the lower South Island


    Officers arrested the Tapanui man yesterday, and he's due in the Queenstown District Court today.

    The investigation began in August last year, after he was found with cannabis and meth following a car accident.

    A Southland man and woman are also before the courts, after the Organised Crime Unit arrested them in October for multiple drugs and firearms offences.

    Police aren't ruling out further arrests.
