  "account": "Bukit Aman's Narcotics Investigation Department head, Hussein Omar Khan, confirmed an individual associated with the alleged international drug trafficking case involving ecstasy in Jakarta, Indonesia. The individual, who was involved in screening at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), will be questioned soon. The investigation so far indicates that the suspect possessed the drugs at an apartment in Ampang. Additionally, the probe is ongoing to explore other aspects, including safety at the airport's entrance. The suspect reportedly arrived at KLIA in the morning, checked in luggage containing the drugs, and left them at KLIA before his flight to Kota Kinabalu, then returning to Kuala Lumpur and traveling to Jakarta with the luggage. The police are currently awaiting information from the Republic of Indonesia Police (POLRI) to mobilize their officers to the relevant country for further questioning. Earlier reports indicated a 39-year-old drug mule was arrested by Indonesian authorities at Terminal 3, Soekarno-Hatta International Airport after being accused of attempting to smuggle 25kg of drugs. According to POLRI, the examination found 15 packages containing 70,114 ecstasy capsules and methamphetamine worth an estimated RM45 million based on market prices in Indonesia.",
