JAKARTA - The West Jakarta Police narcotics unit has destroyed Rp1 billion worth of drugs, including 358 grams of cocaine, 1,486 grams of ecstasy and 1,975 grams of marijuana.
The drugs were seized during the arrests of several suspects, such as Muklis Triharyanto, Gopil, Wahyu Triswayanto, Andri Yuniko, who are now doing time in Salemba prison.
West Jakarta Police narcotics unit head Adj. Snr. Com Gembong Yudha said on Monday that the suspects were arrested two months ago in West and Central Jakarta. "All the drugs, which were worth a total of Rp1 billion, have been destroyed." he added.
The drugs were destroyed by narcotics experts from the National Police headquarters in the presence of West Jakarta State Judiciary. "Cocaine and ecstasy were mixed with water before being drained to the sewer in front of the police office, while the marijuana was burned," Gembong noted.
The drugs are generally used as evidence by the police during their investigation and arrest of drugs dealers. "The investigative reports have been sent to the judiciary and will be presented in the court later, while the drugs were partly destroyed because the rest have been saved to conduct further investigation," Gembong explained.
He added that the ecstasy confiscated from the suspects had come from China, while the marijuana was brought from Aceh "and all of them are not related to Kampung Ambon". "The suspects are dealers who sell the narcotics across Jakarta. We are still investigating this case to get hold of the major drug dealers," Gembong said.
The police have so far arrested 10,818 people who are potential victims of drug abuse.
The suspects were convicted under Article 112, 114 and 132 of Narcotics Law and were sentenced to either life imprisonment or death.
