The West Pasaman Resort Police (Polres), West Sumatra, has tightened supervision in border areas to anticipate the entry of drugs to the area.
"Supervision in the form of patrols and raids must be increased, especially the ranks of the Ranah Batahan Police and the Talamau Police," said West Pasaman Police Chief AKBP Agung Basuki, Sunday, November 26.
According to him, drug trafficking is currently heading to West Pasaman quite high. In general, the suspects admitted that the drugs came from the Mandailing Natal (Madina) area, North Sumatra

"We cannot continue to allow this and supervise through raids and patrols, both in the Batahan and Talu border areas, Talamau District," he said.
He asked the police station in border areas such as Ranah Batahan and Talamau to increase supervision through raids and patrols.
