Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Isa said in the first raid at 5.50pm on April 29, police arrested a local man and a Filipino man, aged 41 and 31 respectively, who were in a Honda City on Jalan Mamanda 1, Ampang.
He said police found 56 plastic packages containing 58.42kg of methamphetamine in the vehicle.
Interrogation of the suspects led to the inspection of a Honda Civic in Taman Melati.
“Police seized another 141 packets of meth weighing 146.76kg.
“Initial investigations revealed the two suspects had sourced the drugs from Kelantan and were using the car as a storage facility,” Bernama reported him as saying today.
In the second raid at 3.30pm last Monday, police detained a 45-year-old man who then led them to a shoplot in a shopping mall on Jalan Imbi, where they seized 221kg of meth estimated to be worth RM7.07 million.
“The suspect tested positive for meth and had five prior criminal and drug-related offences,” he said.
In the third raid at 5.10pm last Tuesday, police arrested a 33-year-old man at a condominium in Taman Mastiara in Sentul and seized 4.1kg of ketamine and 1.1kg of ecstasy pills in a fabric bag he was carrying.
Interrogation of the suspect led to the arrest of another man, aged 23, at the same location, along with the seizure of 288g of ecstasy powder.
“The suspect then led police into one of the condominium rooms, where various drugs were found, including 9kg of ecstasy powder, 4.19kg of ketamine, 3.28kg of ecstasy pills and 1.25kg of Erimin 5, with a total estimated value of RM2.38 million,” he said.
The suspects have been remanded until tomorrow and May 12, and the cases are being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 for drug trafficking.
Rusdi said the drugs seized in the three operations could have supplied 3.2 million addicts.
