16 of those arrested were referred to a drug diversion program, so they won’t face court, while four were interviewed further.
Among the substances seized, cannabis, amphetamine, cocaine, ketamine and MDMA were among with no searches were conducted inside clubs, but door staff at Pawn & Co were inspected, according to the newspaper.
The operation will run until August.
