Two arreted, nearly half mln in drugs seized

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 25 — The police have busted a drug trafficking syndicate with the arrest of two local men aged 29 and 31, and seized various drugs worth almost RM450,000 in raids on several condominium units in Segambut on Monday (November 18).

Sentul district police chief ACP Ahmad Sukarno Mohd Zahari said the arrests were made during a raid at 6.45pm on a condominium unit, where 1,982 packets of MDMA weighing 101,850g were found and seized.

"The team then raided two more units in the same condominium building and seized 196 packets of MMDA with a weight of 9,942g; 450 Erimin 5 pills (124g; five Ecstasy packets (93.83g; eight packets of ketamine (242g), 45 Yaba pills (4.51g); drug processing equipment, and keys to two vehicles,” he said during a press conference at the Sentul district police headquarters today.

The police also located 11 packets of MDMA (542g) in the back passenger seat of a white Volkswagen Passat in the condominium’s parking area and seized four cars — a Toyota Alphard, a Perodua Myvi, a Honda Civic, and a Suzuki Swift, which are believed to have been used to deliver drugs to customers.

Both suspects, who tested negative for drugs and did not possess prior criminal records, have been remanded for seven days starting on November 19, under Section 38B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952. The duo had their remand extended for six days today.

Ahmad said the police are currently trying to identify other syndicate members who are still at large, as well as the source of the seized drugs.
