TUARAN: A jobless teenager has been arrested for allegedly distributing more than 2.11 kilogrammes of methamphetamine in Taman Telipok Ria here.
Tuaran district police chief DSP Mohd Hamizi Halim said the 19-year-old local was nabbed in a raid last Saturday based on a tip-off and police intelligence.
Police seized plastic packets containing crystal-like substances believed to be methamphetamine worth RM89,824 and a car, he said.
“Police believe this case is connected with other drug busts here, but the teenager is not a mastermind drug dealer. Maybe he was used by a drug syndicate to influence other teenagers,” he told a press conference at the Tuaran district police headquarters here today.
