Police nab courier for drugs possession

DENPASAR: Bali Police have arrested a man for possession of illegal drugs, and gained valuable leads that could lead them to a Jakarta-based narcotics factory.

Fisherman Rudi Saputra Siregar, 28, was arrested Friday after police discovered 609 Ecstasy pills and 5.5 grams of crystal methamphetamine in the glove compartment of his rented car.

The Ecstasy pills were separated into 270 pink pills with a Mickey Mouse logo and 339 green pills with an apple logo.

The crystal meth was found wrapped in 11 packets, all of which weighed roughly 12.1 grams, including the wrappings.

The police discovered he was en route to deliver the drugs to a customer, although the identity and whereabouts of that customer remain under investigation.

Rudi, still being questioned by Bali Police, revealed he was a courier for a Jakarta-based drugs producer.- JP
