Bagasi juruterbang ditahan di Indonesia lepasi pemeriksaan KLIA

On July 28, a 39-year-old Malaysia Airlines passenger was detained at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta after being accused of attempting to smuggle 25kg of drugs. According to Indonesia's police, a search revealed 15 bundles containing 70,114 ecstasy pills and methamphetamine worth an estimated RM45 million based on Indonesian market rates.

The suspect allegedly received RM50,000 to transport the drugs from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta, with the individual then taking the drugs upon his return. The police also revealed that the suspect admitted to having previously smuggled drugs to Jakarta and Sabah, with an ongoing investigation being conducted to uncover a syndicate in both countries.

When asked if the drugs seized by the Indonesian authorities were accepted and the passenger implicated after the body scanner inspection, Shuhaily referred the matter to the police. The investigation and information received by the Narcotics Criminal Intelligence Department (JSJN) in Bukit Aman cannot be commented on.
