LAHAD DATU (Bernama): A Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) candidate has been arrested for alleged drug peddling during a raid dubbed 'Ops Tapis" carried out in Taman Panji, Jalan Panji, here on Monday (Sept 30).
Lahad Datu district police chief ACP Nasri Mansor said the 18-year-old suspect was arrested at 3.30pm as he tried to flee during the raid.
"The suspect was apprehended and during inspection, the youth handed over a plastic packet containing a substance believed to be syabu, weighing 5.25g (worth RM787) plus nine wrapped in aluminium foil to the police," he said in a statement Tuesday (Oct 1).
The syabu seized from a Form Five student who was caught peddling in Sabah's east coast Lahad Datu district.
Nasri said the suspect, who is supposed to sit for the SPM this year, was taken to the Lahad Datu district police headquarters for further investigation.
"The investigation also revealed that the suspect, who tested positive for drugs, was involved in small-scale syabu peddling since early September in Kampung Makuao, Lahad Datu, after being influenced by a friend.
Nasri said the youth wanted to make easy money to ease the burden of his family but has no prior criminal record. – Bernama
