On September 25, a man driving a Toyota Wish in Kedah abandoned the vehicle after it collided with a Toyota Hilux four-wheel-drive vehicle on the southbound North-South Expressway near Kota Setar. The crash led to the discovery of a substantial haul of cannabis worth nearly RM6 million tucked inside the MPV. Police found four luggage bags containing 120 packets of cannabis, weighing around 72kg.
The man fled the scene by crossing the road adjacent to the expressway and is believed to have traveled either by motorcycle or as a pillion rider. The driver, a local with a prior criminal record, is suspected of smuggling drugs from a neighboring country. The Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department (NCID) is currently investigating the case under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952.
