Police uncover RM5m drugs hidden in cow dung in Kelantan raids
PASIR MAS: Police uncovered a major drug trafficking operation after discovering over 35.4 kilograms of 'pil kuda' concealed in a pile of cow dung during raids in Pasir Mas and Tumpat. The drugs, valued at RM5.04 million, were seized alongside luxury items worth RM1.1 million. Acting Director of Bukit Aman's Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (JSJN), Datuk Mat Zani @ Mohd Salahuddin Che Ali, confirmed the arrests of six suspects, including five men and one woman aged 25 to 39. The syndicate, active since 2022, allegedly targeted school students and teenagers in Kelantan, Klang Valley, and Johor Bahru. The breakthrough came after a year-long intelligence operation. Police first intercepted a Perodua Axia on Jalan Gajah Mati, Banggol Chica, finding 115 grams of 'pil kuda'. A subsequent search at the suspect's home uncovered another 112 grams. Behind the house, officers discovered 20 kg of the drug hidden in a cattle shed beneath cow dung. Simultaneous raids led to the arrest of another suspect with 15.4 kg of 'pil kuda' in his Toyota Hilux. Further operations in Pasir Mas and Tumpat netted three more individuals, including the wife of the primary suspect. Authorities believe the syndicate laundered drug profits through businesses like a seafood restaurant, salon, and online ventures. All suspects tested negative for drugs in initial screenings, though two had prior drug-related records. The case is being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, with suspects remanded for seven days. Mat Zani stated that the syndicate used the cattle shed as a storage hub before distributing the drugs. Police remain vigilant in curbing drug abuse, particularly in Kelantan, a high-risk border state. - Bernama

Police 'sniff out' drugs worth millions hidden in pile of cow dung
The 'pil kuda' targeted school students and teenagers, believed to be for the market throughout Kelantan, Klang Valley, and Johor Bahru, which could meet the needs of 177,465 people. 03 Jul 2025 07:50pm Acting Director of the Bukit Aman Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (JSJN), Datuk Mat Zani @ Mohd Salahuddin Che Ali, stated that six local suspects, comprising five men and one woman aged between 25 and 39, were arrested in the operation. Photo by Bernama PASIR MAS - Police busted a 'pil kuda' drug trafficking syndicate and seized drugs weighing over 35.4 kilograms (kg), valued at RM5.04 million, through six raids in Pasir Mas and Tumpat last Friday. Acting Director of the Bukit Aman Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (JSJN), Datuk Mat Zani @ Mohd Salahuddin Che Ali, stated that six local suspects, comprising five men and one woman aged between 25 and 39, were arrested in the operation. He said the success was the result of a year-long intelligence gathering by Bukit Aman's JSJN in cooperation with the Kelantan Contingent to combat the syndicate's activities, which are believed to have been active since 2022. "Through the first raid, JSJN intercepted a Perodua Axia car on Jalan Gajah Mati, Banggol Chica, Pasir Mas, and arrested a 34-year-old male suspect. A search of the vehicle found 115 grams of 'pil kuda', before a follow-up search at his home in the same area also found 112 grams of 'pil kuda'. "Subsequently, a search behind the suspect's house revealed a cattle shed with six cows. A search of the farm found 20 kg of 'pil kuda' hidden in a pile of cow dung," he told reporters at a special press conference at the Pasir Mas District Police Headquarters today. Police busted a 'pil kuda' drug trafficking syndicate and seized drugs weighing over 35.4 kilograms (kg), valued at RM5.04 million, through six raids in Pasir Mas and Tumpat last Friday. Photo by Bernama Elaborating further, Mat Zani said that in simultaneous raids, they also arrested another male suspect along with his Toyota Hilux and seized 15.4 kg of 'pil kuda'. "Further raids at several houses around Pasir Mas and Tumpat successfully apprehended three more suspects, including a woman who is the wife of the first suspect. "We believe the profits from selling these 'pil kuda' were used to open other businesses such as a seafood restaurant in Tanah Merah, a salon and online businesses. They laundered the illegal money by engaging in these businesses," he said. He added that the 'pil kuda' targeted school students and teenagers, believed to be for the market throughout Kelantan, Klang Valley, and Johor Bahru, which could meet the needs of 177,465 people. "The syndicate's modus operandi was to use the cattle shed as a storage facility before distributing them to the local market," he said. Besides 'pil kuda', police also seized jewelry, branded bags, and several luxury cars worth over RM1.1 million and the case is being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 and all suspects have been remanded for seven days until tomorrow to assist in the investigation. "Initial urine screening tests found all suspects negative for drugs. However, a check of criminal records found that the second and fifth suspects had past records, including drug abuse. "Police will continue to curb drug abuse problems, especially in Kelantan as a border state, through continuous operations to detect several other drug syndicates that are on our radar," he said. - BERNAMA
