Suspect detained in Indonesia with ivory smuggled in from Sabah 'still in shock'

KOTA KINABALU: Indonesian authorities have been unable to glean more information from a suspect who was detained with a shipment of ivory as he is still in a "state of shock" since his arrest on July 9.

Sabah Wildlife Department director Augustine Tuuga said they had been trying to get more information on this matter from their Indonesian counterparts, since the 54-year-old suspect was nabbed in Kalimantan, Indonesia on July 9 with a shipment of ivory smuggled in from Sabah.
