Heroin bust

A Moulden couple were busted with cocaine and heroin during a police raid.

Officers from the Drug Enforcement Section found 7.3g of heroin and 9.8g of cocaine during the search, as well as 4g of cannabis.

A 26-year-old man who lived at the premises was arrested over the stash.

Senior Sergeant Les Martin of the Drug Enforcement Section said it was unusual to find heroin in Darwin.

"At this stage we are not treating the find as an emerging trend although we will be monitoring the situation," he said.

The man was charged with supplying heroin, possessing and using heroin, cocaine and cannabis and was bailed to appear before a court at a later date.
