A major drug trafficking syndicate in Johor Bahru has been busted after police conducted two raids in a residential area in Bandar Seri Alam, resulting in the seizure of RM8.49 million worth of drugs. Johor Police Chief Ab Rahaman Arsad disclosed that the raids on August 5 also led to the arrest of two local men aged 30 and 34. The first raid took place at Senibong Avenue, Masai, where the first suspect, aged 30, was apprehended for guarding a storage facility.
Further investigations led to the seizure of 132,600 pills, 53,000 ecstasy pills, 290 packets of powdered ecstasy, 13 packets of ketamine, and packets of MDMA. Police also found a Honda City, Toyota Vellfire, BMW, Proton Saga, motorcycle, and RM100,000 in cash during the operations. Additionally, a second raid in Taman Ehsan Jaya turned up no drugs.
All the seized drugs weighed 96.76 kg and were estimated to have a street value of RM8.49 million. Initial tests of the suspects' urine came back negative, but they have criminal records. The case is being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, and the suspects are being questioned starting from August 6 until tomorrow morning. Police are still on the lookout for the syndicate's mastermind.
