South Africa is emerging as a production hub for high-quality methamphetamine that's manufactured by transnational syndicates and then later exported to its more lucrative markets in Australia and New Zealand, for example,” said McLaggan.

He said that these are sophisticated operations where frontrunners rent properties and procure equipment often used by pharmaceutical companies.

McLaggan warned that the drug-lab busts this year may only be the beginning.

Police have confirmed the drug lab found yesterday was on premises being rented out
