In two separate raids, Malaysia police busted two drug syndicates, and arrested three Africans.

“We seized 3.4kg of drugs believed to be syabu. The drugs were in 40 packages. Checks found that the illicit items were stuffed in laptop adaptors and brought in by sea from China via a courier service,” so said the Federal Narcotics Criminal Inves-tigation Department Commander Datuk Seri Mohd Mokhtar Mohd Shariff when commenting on the first raid.

All in all, we seized 4.8kg of drugs with the help of China’s National Narcotics Control Commission,” he said, adding that two cars worth RM48,000 (US $12,023) were also impounded.
