KUALA LUMPUR: Some 300kg of syabu and 2kg of Ecstasy pills worth RM10.8mil were seized following several raids in the Klang Valley and Negri Sembilan.
City deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Yahaya Othman said seven suspects, including one with the title Datuk and a woman, aged between 27 and 61, were arrested in the operation codenamed Ops Greyhound on Friday.
“We managed to cripple a syndicate that has been operating in the Klang Valley since early this year.
“They would get the drugs from suppliers in the northern states to be distributed around the Klang Valley and a neighbouring country,” he told a press conference yesterday.
DCP Yahaya said the drugs could cater to some 600,000 addicts.
“We also seized seven vehicles, jewellery and cash worth a total of RM481,996,” he added.
DCP Yahaya said urine tests on the suspects found six of them were positive for methamphetamine.
“We will conduct further investigations to arrest the remnants of the syndicate.
“We hope the public can assist us in channelling information on drug-related activities,” he added.
