JAKARTA - The West Java High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) noted that narcotics abuse cases are the most widely handled general criminal cases in this area throughout 2022. Head of the West Java Prosecutor's Office Asep N Mulyana, in Bandung, Friday, said the number of narcotics cases handled amounted to 2,439 cases, more than other cases such as theft, embezzlement, fraud, etc. "Almost in various places, and later there will be distributions in certain places, in Bandung City, then in several big cities, which seems to be one of the most prominent cases in West Java," said Asep, quoting Antara. In addition, according to him, this is worrying because the majority of narcotics abuses enter into productive age. "What is concerning us, the perpetrators are mostly productive ages, between 17 and 25 years old," he said.
