The West Jakarta Metro Police managed to uncover cases of hoarding millions of illegal tramadol and eximer pills from a warehouse in the Kedoya area as well as arresting three suspects.

"We found illegal drugs along with three suspects, namely KHK (55), AK (38), and AAM (38) from the raid on a warehouse on Thursday, April 13, 2023," said West Jakarta Metro Police Chief Kombes Pol Muhammad Syahduddi, Wednesday, May 3.

Syahduddi explained that the discovery of the tramadol and eximer pill cases in this warehouse began with a brawl that occurred in the West Jakarta area.

At that time, the West Jakarta Metro Police arrested several people who were involved in the brawl in April 2023.

"The people we have secured have tested positive for hard drugs containing benzo. Benzo is the content contained in these illegal drugs, both tramadol and eximer," he said.

Based on these findings, his party then carried out developments until finally getting information on the existence of the pill warehouse in the Kedoya area.

The police also raided the warehouse and found evidence in the form of 37,418,000 tramadol and eximer pills.

Not only that, the police also arrested three suspects at the location of the raid. Based on the results of the interim examination, each suspect has different roles.

Suspect AAM has a role in marketing the pills to the public. Furthermore, the suspect KHK played a role in providing warehouses and helping to enter the goods from India. Meanwhile, AKA is the owner of millions of pills purchased from India to Indonesia.

Syahduddi is still investigating the smuggling and distribution of these illicit goods in the DKI Jakarta area. His party is also still investigating how long the warehouse for these tramadol and eximer pills will be operating.

For the disclosure of the case, the three suspects were subject to the Health Law Article 196 in conjunction with Article 98 paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 36 of 2009 concerning health and Article 197 in conjunction with Article 106 paragraph 1 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 36 of 2009 with 15 years in prison and a fine of IDR 1.5 billion
