Five arrested for drugs<\/p>\n
DENPASAR, Bali (JP): Five alleged drug dealers have been
\narrested by Bali Police drug squad detectives.<\/p>\n
Bali Police chief Brig. Gen. Wayan Ardjana said here on
\nWednesday that the five suspects, identified as Tatang Wiyadi
\n(33), Nanang (41), Budi (36), Yuda (30), and Iqbal (33), were all
\napprehended on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The first four suspects were arrested in separate places in
\nthe Kuta area a number of hours before Iqbal's arrest. The
\narrests resulted in the police seizing 100 grams of hashish, 38
\ngrams of heroin, 112 grams of marijuana, and Rp 4 million in
\ncash.<\/p>\n
Iqbal was arrested at around 8 p.m. local time in a small
\nhotel on Jl. Mertasari, Kerobokan. The police found a total of
\n4.2 kilograms of marijuana stashed inside a suitcase.<\/p>\n
The contraband is worth around Rp 200 million.<\/p>\n
Ardjana said the police had yet to find out if Iqbal had
\ndealings with the narcotics gang whose members were arrested in
\nJakarta on Monday in possession of 1.4 tons of marijuana.<\/p>\n
A police source disclosed that busting Iqbal was not an easy
\njob. \"He never carried any marijuana with him.\"<\/p>\n
\"We assume that he always traveled without the drugs. He had
\nsomebody else bring the suitcase containing the marijuana to the
\nspecified address. We were very lucky last night that we managed
\nto find the destination,\" the source said. (zen)<\/p>",
