Four police officers are expected to be arraigned in the coming days over drug possession.
Two of the officers, who are sergeants, were at the centre of an investigation and were found to be in possession of a small amount of cannabis when their homes in Senglea were raided.
They were both suspended and criminal proceedings against them have already started.
In two other separate cases, a constable working at the police headquarters got reported to her superiors after she bragged that she had been doing some designer drugs at a party.
She resigned along with another 23-year-old constable who was arrested during the recent Santa Marija raids at a party in Rabat.
Both the officers "admitted to having abused of illicit drugs while not on duty and criminal charges have been instituted against them," a spokesman for the police said.
