Kelantan police chief Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat has stated that only a small minority of parents continue to defend their children involved in drug addiction, despite the implementation of a stricter police strategy against drug offenders. This new strategy, which was introduced on July 15, requires each of the 56 police station chiefs to arrest at least one drug addict daily.
Mohd Yusoff noted that while police lock-ups were initially overwhelmed, they are now under control and can be managed. The police have also disposed of 6,536 drug exhibits, valued at approximately RM1.104 million, dating from 2008 to 2024, as part of their efforts to combat drug crimes.
