BANDUNG - The Bandung City Police (Polrestabes) have thwarted the circulation of 1 kilogram of methamphetamine-type narcotics ready to be distributed in the Bandung City area.
The Head of the Bandung Police, Kombes Budi Sartono, explained that all the evidence was secured from the results of the investigation after arresting the perpetrator with the initials RFR, who is 18 years old.
"The discovery of 1,018 grams of sabu-sabu with the suspect RFR, a 18-year-old male, was arrested in the Cileunyi Toll area," said Budi as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, December 23.
Budi said based on the results of the examination, the suspect RFR acted as a dealer who brought methamphetamine from Jakarta to be distributed in Bandung City.
The police are also still hunting for another suspect with the initials K who is suspected of being the supplier of the illegal goods.
"The person concerned got the goods from suspect K in Jakarta. Currently, he is still being pursued," he said.
In addition, his party suspects that the circulation of sabu-sabu is to supply the New Year 2026 celebration in Bandung City.
"Maybe this circulation is used and sold in the context of the end-of-year party, so we have secured it," said Budi.
