Titled drug lords and VVIP backers

BASED on the number of cases brought to court, we have a surfeit of titled rogues in our midst. They include Datuks who are gangsters, scammers and even wife beaters. Now, we know that there are also drug kingpins holding the titles of Datuk, Datuk Seri and even Tan Sri.

On Saturday, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador disclosed that police had identified several drug lords who have been living in luxury, using their legitimate businesses as fronts for their illegal activities.
