Taking to TikTok, Kelantan Police Chief Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat shared that a majority of product owners and influencers in the state are involved with narcotics and money laundering.

In his video he shared that many adopt the same modus operandi, using their legal businesses as a front to screen their criminal activities.

He explained, “In one case, a product owner was caught with drugs amassing RM5 million in 2020. The business was successful, but it served as a front for their illegal business.”

“In another case, a cosmetics entrepreneur with a Datin status was caught distributing drugs. They used the same modus operandi.”

“As recently as 2024, another business owner was found guilty of running his own drug cartel and was covered by the media last year,” he shared.

The police chief then went on to warn those involved in narcotics and money laundering that stern action will be taken once they are caught.

“The law does not discriminate stature or position. We will not compromise our stance against the drug trade to those involved.”
