KUALA TERENGGANU: An assortment of contraband fireworks – weighing 203kg and with a street value of about RM6,000 – was seized from an abandoned chicken coop, not far from where an explosion that kil­­led a six-year-old boy two weeks ago.

Terengganu Customs director Datuk Azis Yacub said his officers raided the place at Kampung Losong Haji Mat Shafie at about 10.48pm on Thursday following a tip-off.
