Swart said several roadblocks were installed on different access and exit routes in Uitenhage, which resulted in the arrest of 29 people for driving while under the influence of alcohol.
She said several liquor premises were also visited and 11 owners and managers received fines for non-compliance with the Liquor Act.
A total of 89 traffic fines were issued, valued at more than R44,500.

Forty-eight suspects were detained for the illegal possession of drugs.
