Former Zebras goalkeepers arrested for drugs

Wednesday, June 15, 2016

Two former national football team goalkeepers were last week arrested in Palapye. The duo (names known to this publication) was arrested in connection to possession of a suspected illegal drug.

The ex-Zebras players spent sometime in Palapye holding cells. The Palapye station commander Waboraro Ramaja confirmed this.

Ramaja said: “We are currently investigating a case against two former Zebras players.” Ramaja however could not go into details about the case, as he was in back-to-back meetings when this publication reached him. He however indicated that they were working with the Broadhurst Police to investigate the matter.
