MELAKA: The Melaka police have crippled a drug syndicate with the arrest of three suspects and the seizure of RM650,369 worth of drugs in a raid at Taman Saga, Malim, two days ago.

State deputy police chief SAC Md Nazri Nawawi said the suspects arrested in the raid conducted at about 8.15pm were a local man and two Thai women, aged 25 to 27.

He said the drugs that were seized included liquid ketamine (279.84 litres), Erimin 5 pills (0.551 kg), ecstasy pills (0.26 kg), ketamine (6.734 kg), ketamine powder (5.25 kg) and ecstasy powder (1.224 kg).

Md Nazri said one of the suspects had previous records, but all of them tested negative for drugs.

They are on remand for seven days until Feb 4 for drug trafficking and possession of a firearm. – Bernama
