NUNUKAN - North Kalimantan Nunukan Police (Kaltara) destroyed evidence of methamphetamine weighing 86.4 kilograms (kg) and 1,243 ecstasy pills.
Nunukan Police Chief AKBP Taufik Nurmandia said the two pieces of evidence were the result of the disclosure of the case during January-March 2024.
"We destroyed 86.4 kilograms of ecstasy pills and 1,243 pills. These are the results of 11 cases that were successfully uncovered by the ranks of the Resort Police and Sector Police with 15 suspects consisting of 3 women and 12 men," said AKBP Taufik, Wednesday, April 3.
AKBP Taufiq said his party was still pursuing other suspects.
"We have carried out the development of the case, but it was cut off because it was suspected that the other suspects were in Malaysia, so that our pursuit efforts were in synergy with the PDRM (Polis Diraja Malaysia)," he explained.
Taufik emphasized that all suspects who are currently detained are Indonesian citizens who work in Malaysia. They are threatened with imprisonment.
"It can be a prison sentence of 20 years and over or the death penalty. It depends on the prosecutor's demands and the court's decision," said the Police Chief.
"For the destruction of methamphetamine, it was carried out by dissolving it into a large plastic drum filled with water mixed with bayclin and then thrown it into the side sewer of the police chief. Previously, this methamphetamine had also been examined and tested for authenticity by the Nunukan state court laboratory team. As for the Ecstasy Pill, it was destroyed with a blend," he continued.
