Officers also found a considerable amount of cash
A man was arrested late on Saturday after drugs were found in his car during a police roadblock.
The find was made at Triq Għar Dalam, Birżebbuġa at about 11.30pm.
The man was seen acting suspiciously when his Toyota Yaris was stopped, and the officers therefore decided to search his vehicle. They found 30 sachets of suspected cocaine, 30 MDMA pills, a substance believed to be cannabis and other items related to drugs, as well as a considerable amount of cash.
The drugs were found in circumstances which indicated they were not for personal use, the police said.
The 25-year-old from Hamrun is being held at police headquarters while investigations continue.
