Indonesian police have arrested two individuals connected to the seizure of 1.16 tonnes of ketamine on a tanker up for sale. The suspects, a director of the tanker's original owner and a ship sales agent, were remanded for seven days to assist investigations. The tanker, MT Global 168, was bought in April for refurbishment and resale, and was sold to Myanmar-based Golden Dolphin Co Ltd via a broker on June 28.
Police have identified three other suspects from Singapore, Taiwan, and Myanmar, and are seeking their assistance in the investigation. Indonesian narcotics officials are collaborating with other agencies to locate the suspects and coordinate further action.
