Three men are expected to be arraigned in the coming days to face drug-related charges.

The police said yesterday a 30-year-old man was arrested in Ħamrun on Friday night by the drugs squad. He was stopped after investigations showed he was about to try to sell drugs at entertainment spots. The police said he was found in possession of a substance thought to be cocaine.

A Birkirkara man, 39, was arrested on Saturday night when he was allegedly found carrying a white substance suspected to be cocaine. The same night, members of the rapid intervention unit searched a 32-year-old from Floriana over a cocaine-like substance found on him.

The police said there were indications the substance was not meant for his exclusive use.
