The Bandung Police Narcotics Investigation Unit raided a house in the Mekar Wangi Complex area, Bandung City, West Java, which was used as a place to store illegal hard drugs.

During the raid, the police confiscated about 1.2 million pills of hard drugs of various types.

Head of Bandung Polrestabes Kombes Budi Sartono said the disclosure of this case began with the arrest of a dealer who then directed officers to the storage location.

"It turned out that at the house, approximately 1,271,700 pills were found, consisting of trihexyphenidyl, tramadol, double Y, heximer, dextro, and nexax," Budi said when releasing the case in Bandung, Anara, Tuesday, July 29.

He explained that the owner of the house with the initials AZ managed to escape when the raid was carried out on Mingg. Currently, AZ has been on the wanted list (DPO) and is still being chased.

The suspect had fled through the back door. After the members entered, large amounts of evidence were found. At this location, various identities were also left behind, ranging from cars, ID cards, to SIMs," he said.

Budi added that the circulation of the hard drugs was suspected of targeting the Bandung City area and its surroundings. The information was obtained from a dealer who was first arrested.

"This started when we followed a small seller, it turned out to come here and it was revealed that this house is a distributor's place," he said.

Currently, the police are still conducting further investigations to hunt down the main perpetrators and uncover the illegal drug distribution network.

Deputy Mayor of Bandung Erwin also appreciated the work of the Bandung Polrestabes for this success. He said the disclosure of this case was important to save the younger generation from the dangers of drug abuse.

"I thank the Chief of Police and the Head of Narcotics for saving young people. Medicines like this can cause chaos, and millions of them have been confiscated," said Erwin.
