4 Owners Of 5 Kilograms Of Methamphetamine In Palangka Raya Taken To Jakarta

PALANGKA RAYA - Four suspected owners of five kilograms of methamphetamine, which were arrested by members of the central National Narcotics Agency (BNN) in Palangka Raya City, Central Kalimantan, have been taken to Jakarta.

"Yes, it's true that there were four people carrying methamphetamine weighing five kilograms who were secured by the central BNN. The four perpetrators have been brought to Jakarta," said Head of the Central Kalimantan BNN's Eradication Division Kombes Agustiyanto as quoted by Antara, Wednesday, February 23.

He explained that the arrest of four suspects who owned five kilograms of crystal methamphetamine who was arrested on Jalan Tjilik Riwut Km 5, to be precise in front of the Tuah Pahoe Stadium, Bukit Tunggal Village, Jekan Raya District, was not long ago.

BNNP members who assisted the Central BNN team immediately ambushed the four perpetrators without any resistance. Officers also secured the evidence on Monday, February 21.

"Our members are only helping in the arrest," said Agus.

Regarding where they will distribute it, continued Agus, his party does not know because the case will be developed by the Central BNN.

However, the Central Kalimantan BNNP will not remain silent. Its members will also develop and find out who ordered the illicit goods so that they can enter the jurisdiction of the Central Kalimantan BNNP.

"Of course in this case we will also develop the case, so that we will find out who ordered the illicit goods," he said.

The local BNNP has not been able to describe in detail the modus operandi and chronology of the arrests of the perpetrators of the crime.

The handling of this case is carried out by the Central BNN investigators. Coordination is still being carried out by the Kalimantan BNNP with the central BNN in developing an investigation into the case to trace the network of illicit goods circulation.

"The chronology of the arrests has not been made by the central BNN, but when it is given, I will certainly inform you," said Agus.
