IPOH: Two major drug processing and distribution rackets were crippled this week when the Perak and Penang police smashed their operations following raids at residences-turned-drug laboratories.

In Ipoh, police raided a bungalow in nearby Chemor and seized about RM30mil worth of Eramin-5 pills, the biggest haul of drugs for the Perak contingent this year, and arrested two men on Tuesday.
