MEDAN - The Satresnarkoba Team of the Labuhanbatu Police, North Sumatra, arrested two suspected accomplices of drug dealer Firman Pasaribu alias 'Man Batak'.
Kasatresnarkoba Labuhanbatu Police AKP Martualesi Sitepu said the identities of the two suspects with the initials MZ alias Zuned (31) and HT alias Ogut (43) who are residents of Labuhanbatu Regency.
The two suspects were secured on Sunday, February 7 at different locations. Both of them had to be paralyzed for trying to fight off the officers during development.

"The person concerned is a recidivist who was arrested by Satnarkoba Labuhanbatu in 2017 and sentenced to 4 years, released in April 2020, which according to the suspect during his imprisonment was financed by Man Batak and after leaving prison immediately joined the drug syndicate," he explained.
