DENPASAR - Bali Province National Narcotics Agency thwarted the transaction of 1.9 kilograms of marijuana in Sangsit Market, Buleleng Regency, Bali.

Head of the Bali Province BNN Brigadier General Rudy Ahmad Sudrajat said the disclosure of the Sumatra-Bali drug network was following up on information from the North Sumatra Province BNN regarding a package of alleged marijuana-type narcotics that was sent to the Buleleng Bali area, Wednesday (14/5).

The Bali Province BNN Eradication Team together with BNNK Buleleng immediately moved to control the delivery of the package.

"From the results of the investigation, it is known that someone with the initials AAM was ordered by a friend with the initials NRM to take the package and then hand over it at Sangsit Market, Buleleng," he said, Friday, May 16.

Receiving this information, the Bali BNNP Team immediately arrested suspects AAM and NRM at Sangsit Market, Buleleng.

In front of witnesses, officers conducted a search and found the package contained dry leaves suspected of being marijuana weighing 1,923.11 grams net.

According to Rudy, the disclosure of this case shows that narcotics abuse and illicit trafficking do not only occur in urban areas, but has penetrated rural areas.

"For this reason, this problem needs the attention of all parties, including village officials and local communities to always be vigilant and protect their environment from the threat of drug harm," said the Head of BNNP Bali.

The two suspects were then taken to the Bali Province BNN office for a thorough investigation and further investigation of the narcotics network involved.
