JAKARTA (JP): Police have seized 46.15 kilograms of dried
marijuana estimated to have the street value of at least Rp 90
million (US$13,000) from four suspected drug dealers in a single
raid in Tangerang.

Tangerang police chief Lt. Col. Pudji Hartanto on Friday
identified the suspects in the raid, that began on Thursday
evening until early on Friday, as businessman Efmi Redi, alias
Amin Rais, 26, businessman Maimun, 36, of Curug, Zuraini Abdul
Gani, 26, and his 19-year-old brother, Zunedi Abdul Gani. All of
them live at the Bumi Kelapa Dua housing complex in Curug.

"We firstly arrested Efmi, based on a tip-off at the housing
complex's market, with a quarter kilo of ganja. From him, we got
Maimun's role and address.

"My officers then went to the latter's home on Jl. Kano Raya
(in the same complex). There we got Maimun and the other two
guys."

The 46 kilograms of ganja, he said, was packed in 33 brown
packages hidden under beds and inside the drawers at Maimun's
residence. (ylt)
