PAPUA - Efforts to smuggle 20 packages of dried marijuana weighing 8.25 kilograms (kg) through the Indonesia-Papua New Guinea (PNW) border in Muara Tami District, Jayapura City, Papua, were thwarted by the authorities.
Wadansatgas Major Inf Zulfikar Rakita Dewa said the 20 packages of dried marijuana were brought by two unknown people stored in two four-wheeled vehicle tires.
"Previously we received information from one of the residents with the initials SO (24) from Mosso Village who reported that in the last few days there was information that there had been quite a lot of suspicious activity at the Skouw-Wutung border," he said in a press release in Jayapura, Monday, June 19, which was confiscated by Antara.
According to Zulfikar, his party immediately carried out an in-depth investigation regarding information reported by residents to the Indonesian Pamtas Task Force-PNG Infantry Battalion 132/BS.
"After deepening the information, on Sunday (June 18) the Task Force Team conducted a night patrol along the Skouw-Wutung border route to the water dam which is the end of the border route," he said.

He explained that the Main Command Post Patrol Team numbered 12 people while carrying out night patrols along the Skouw-Wutung border route saw two unknown people each carrying suspicious luggage.
"However, when the team began to approach them, the two unknown people fled towards Papua New Guinea while throwing their luggage," he said.
He added that when the patrol team carried out inspections around the location, two tires in a four-wheeled vehicle were found which were suspected to be the luggage of the two unknown people.
"After being examined, it was found that the contents of the two inner tires were a package of marijuana, so the patrol team took it to the Main Command Post and continued with a detailed examination with the results of 20 packages of dried marijuana weighing 8.25 kilograms," he said.
He said a total of 33.24 kilograms of marijuana had been secured by the Battalion 132/BS Task Force for nearly eight months in the area.
"This confirms that TNI soldiers will always be present to protect and provide security guarantees for the people on the Papuan border," he said.
