Police cripple Klang Valley drug network in Sungai Buloh and Hulu Selangor
KUALA LUMPUR: Police have dismantled a drug distribution network involving cannabis in Sungai Buloh and Hulu Selangor with the arrest of three local men aged between 28 and 42.
Sungai Buloh district police chief Superintendent Mohd Hafiz Muhammad Nor said a total of 1,006.5g of cannabis was seized during the operation on June 19.
"In addition to the cannabis, an estimated 40.93g of heroin, 57.56g of Yaba pills, 3.32g of ecstasy pills, and 0.82g of methamphetamine were also seized during the operation conducted by the Sungai Buloh Narcotics Criminal Investigation Division.
"Intelligence gathered and interrogation conducted on one of the suspects provided additional information, which was shared with other district police departments across Selangor. This led to more arrests and significantly disrupted the cannabis distribution network," he said in a statement.
Hafiz said preliminary investigations revealed the network's modus operandi was to order cannabis from a neighbouring country, with the drugs then delivered via local courier services before being distributed in the Klang Valley.
The estimated market value of the seized drugs is between RM30,000 and RM40,000.
All three suspects have been remanded for between five and seven days from June 20 to 26 under Section 117 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
The case is being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, which carries the mandatory death penalty or life imprisonment with whipping upon conviction.
Hafiz urged members of the public with information on criminal activities, particularly involving drugs, to come forward and assist police efforts to eradicate drug distribution and abuse within the jurisdiction of the Sungai Buloh District Police Headquarters.

Four charged with trafficking liquid cocaine
Day in court: Four men, comprising a Malaysian and three Singapore nationals, being escorted to the Ampang Magistrate's Court on liquid cocaine trafficking charges. — Bernama KUALA LUMPUR: Four men, comprising a Malaysian and three Singaporeans, were charged at the Ampang Magistrate's Court yesterday with trafficking liquid cocaine last week. Malaysian Kong Sien Mee, 57, and the three Singaporeans – Quek Kien Seng, 45, Tristan Chew Jin Zhong, 25, and Ivan Tan Zhi Xuan, 31, nodded when the charge was read out to them before Magistrate Amalina Basirah Md Top. However, no plea was recorded from all the accused as the case falls under the jurisdiction of the High Court, Bernama reported. The four were jointly charged under Section 39B(1)(a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 with trafficking 9420.2 ml of cocaine at the exit of a hotel here at 11.45am last June 19. They face the death sentence or life imprisonment, and if not sentenced to death, a minimum of 12 strokes of the cane, upon conviction. The court set Sept 8 for mention and submission of the chemist's report. The prosecution was conducted by Deputy Public Prosecutor M. Ramanathan Alias Ashwin, while the three Singaporeans were represented by lawyer Ille Maryam Yusnawannie. Kong was unrepresented. Meanwhile in Putrajaya, the Court of Appeal upheld the death sentence imposed on a man who murdered his nine-year-old daughter in 2018. A three-member bench consisting of Justices Ahmad Zaidi Ibrahim, Azman Abdullah and Azmi Ariffin dismissed an appeal by Mohammad Abdullah Mohamed against his conviction and sentence by the High Court. Deputy public prosecutor Datin Asmah Musa, appearing for the prosecution, and Mohammad Abdullah's lawyer Afifuddin Ahmad Hafifi, confirmed the court's decision to Bernama. Asmah said Justice Azmi, who delivered the court's decision, said that while the Abolition of Mandatory Death Penalty Act 2023 provides discretionary sentencing between 30 and 40 years, the court found the death sentence was appropriate after considering the aggravated and mitigating factors. According to the facts of the case, Mohammad Abdullah had instructed Nur Aina Nabihah and her other siblings to do 500 push-ups and sit-ups as punishment for failing to perform prayers. When his daughter became too weak to continue, he assaulted her.
