Suami isteri ditahan bersama dadah RM3.56 juta
Ini merupakan rampasan bunga ganja pertama di Sabah.
Sabah police have arrested a couple, including a local man and his 32-year-old foreign wife, for possessing 44.3kg of ganja and 5.6kg of cannabis worth RM3.56 million in Kudat last month, marking the first seizure of ganja in the state. The incident occurred around 4.40 pm at the Tanjong Kapor village checkpoint, with the husband detained for about 4 minutes and his wife shortly after at the village edge.
According to Jauteh Dikun, the Sabah Anti-Crackdown and Protection Agency (AKPS), the suspects were brought to Kudat IPD along with four plastic containers filled with ganja and cannabis.
Further examination revealed 75 plastic bags containing 44.3kg of ganja and 10 plastic bags with 5.6kg of cannabis, estimated to be worth RM3.56 million and capable of holding around 99,800 doses. The initial urine test of the male suspect, who has three prior drug-related records, was positive for methamphetamine and amphetamine, while his wife tested negative for drugs and had no prior drug records.
The couple was taken to Kudat Magistrate's Court on August 28 and their case is being heard under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952.
