JAKARTA - Former West Sumatra Police Chief as well as a defendant in a drug trafficking case, Inspector General Teddy Minahasa admitted that he wanted to trap Linda with methamphetamine. "This is the entrance to beat him (Linda)," said Teddy while testifying at the West Jakarta District Court (PN), Antara, Wednesday, March 1. Teddy explained that the intention to trap it emerged because Linda had given him the wrong information in 2019.

Teddy asked Doddy to borrow five kilograms of crystal methamphetamine that had been detained by the Prosecutor's Office.

The goal was for Linda to be arrested while holding the methamphetamine. "Mas, we're working on this guy, this guy has worked with me," Teddy said, imitating the conversation with Doddy at the time.
