JAKARTA - The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) of the Republic of Indonesia has confirmed the findings or disclosure of class one narcotics cases in the form of marijuana weighing 624.507 kilograms, not international networks.

"Until now, we have found that they (suspects) are only involved in buying and selling drugs, types of plants that can grow in Indonesia," said Head of BNN RI Police Commissioner General Martinus Hukom during a press conference on the disclosure of narcotics cases of marijuana weighing 624 kilograms in Padang, Friday, August 18, confiscated by Antara.

On that basis, Martinus believes that the seven suspects with the initials K, R, P, Z, E, H, and RK are not international networks, except in the development of cases investigators found that the suspect also sold other types of narcotics such as methamphetamine or ecstasy pills.

"If they sell methamphetamine and ecstasy, it is very possible that they are involved in the circulation of international networks," he said.

On that occasion, the three-star general said 624 kg of marijuana ready for distribution would be culled two weeks after receiving a stipulation from the local District Attorney. This refers to Article 91 Paragraph 2 of Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics.

Meanwhile, Article 90 Paragraph 1 of Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics states that a small percentage of narcotics evidence is set aside for the benefit of laboratory testing, and evidence of cases at trial.

He emphasized that BNN would closely monitor the disclosure of the case, including evidence of marijuana weighing 624 kg from Aceh.

This is because BNN does not want to be missed, such as the disclosure of the methamphetamine case that ensnared former West Sumatra Police Chief Teddy Minahasa.

"I want to learn from the experience that occurs here which injures the morale of law enforcement institutions," he said.

He appealed that if the public received information about law enforcement officers suspected of being involved in the 624 marijuana case, it was hoped that they would immediately report it to BNN.

"Please report it to the National Police or BNN and other law enforcers," he said.
