KOTA BARU – A man was arrested with 100 bottles of drugs suspected to be heroin worth RM200,000 at an eatery in Kg Gual Sitok, Pasir Mas, on Friday (July 22).

Acting Kelantan police chief Datuk Muhamad Zaki Harun said the suspect, 23, was arrested at 2.36pm when a police team spotted him acting suspiciously at the eatery.

Initial inspections revealed that he had a plastic bag with bottles filled with heroin, Zaki said at a media conference here today, adding that the suspect also tested positive for morphine.

In a separate case, police arrested a man, 34, and seized 2,000 Yaba pills from a car in front of a house at 5.06am in Kg Repek, Pasir Mas, on Thursday (July 21).

Zaki said the suspect, who was a labourer, also tested positive for methamphetamine and possessed prior records.

“The pills, worth RM20,000, found under the driver’s seat, were seized, along with RM650 in cash,” he added.

Both suspects have been remanded for seven days from the date they were arrested under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952. – Bernama, July 24, 2022
