‘Cocktail’ syndicates busted


JOHOR BARU: Drug syndicates in Johor are repackaging substances like methamphetamine and ketamine into convenient drink sachets, selling them for RM200 to RM300 each to evade detection, according to state police.

Johor police chief Comm Datuk M. Kumar highlighted the tactic, saying that the sachets, usually containing a “cocktail” of substances such as methamphetamine and ketamine, make the substances difficult to distinguish from legitimate products.
