SEMARANG - The Semarang Police Narcotics Investigation Unit arrested 15 perpetrators of narcotics abuse from 11 cases in the last few weeks.
Semarang Deputy Chief of Police AKBP Yuswanto Ardi said his party had named the perpetrators as suspects. They have different roles, ranging from dealers to couriers.
The evidence that was secured from the dozens of suspects included 38 grams of crystal methamphetamine and 823 grams of marijuana.
One of the cases that was quite prominent in the disclosure was the arrest of two marijuana couriers with the initials AS (18) and LGE (31).
According to him, the two perpetrators were employees of a freight forwarding company.
"Both of them are in charge of taking and sending cannabis orders," he said in Semarang, Central Java, quoted from Antara, Tuesday, July 12.
Even though he works for a freight forwarder, he said, his job as a marijuana courier is not related to his place of work.
In one shipment of marijuana, continued Ardi, the two perpetrators received a salary of Rp. 100,000.
A total of 15 suspects were subsequently charged with Law Number 45 of 2009 concerning Narcotics.
