NTB - The West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Police Narcotics Investigation Directorate team uncovered a network of methamphetamine smugglers from Aceh. The perpetrators hide these illicit goods in their respective rectums.

Director of Narcotics Investigation (Dirresnarkoba) of the NTB Polda Kombes Helmi Kwarta Kusuma Putra Rauf said the four people arrested were shippers. The remaining two people are customers who are also husband and wife.

"Initially we arrested four people at Lembar Harbor, West Lombok," Helmi said when releasing the case at the NTB Police, Mataram, as reported by Antara, Monday, March 14.

Four people with the initials IH, FH, MS, and a woman with the initials IA. They were arrested with evidence of methamphetamine up to 600 grams. "They kept evidence of methamphetamine in their rectums. The mode was revealed after we did x-rays at the hospital," he said.

From the arrests of the four, it was revealed that the methamphetamine was brought from Aceh. They departed from Aceh to Bali by air. The airline they used had a transit in Jakarta. Arriving in Bali, they entered the island of Lombok by sea.

"So when they stopped in Bali, they took out (evidence for methamphetamine), then went to Lombok and put it back in again," he said.

In addition to carrying drugs, the police also revealed the ultimate goal of the perpetrators. The role of the customer was revealed from the results of the examination of the mobile phones belonging to the perpetrators. "It appears on it (mobile phone) the name 'Pak Guru and his wife,' he said.

Both identities were recognized by the perpetrators as errands. Their whereabouts are being tracked by the police. However, two days after the arrest of the four smugglers, the whereabouts of the two buyers with the initials MW and his wife NW were revealed in the Aikmel area, East Lombok Regency.

"Saturday night the team immediately arrested the two of them while they were at their house," he said.

From the arrest, Helmi admitted that the team did not find any evidence related to methamphetamine. However, five savings books and cell phones belonging to the husband and wife were confiscated.

"From the evidence of their savings books and cellphones (Pak Guru and his wife) we will use them as evidence to strengthen their role," said Helmi.

With the discovery of the methamphetamine smuggling network from Aceh, he said, six of the perpetrators have now been detained at the NTB Regional Police.

Because it is related to narcotics abuse, those who undergo detention are threatened with life imprisonment in accordance with Article 112 Paragraph 2 and or Article 114 Paragraph 2 and or Article 132 Paragraph 1 of Law No. 35/2009 on Narcotics.
