Alleged drug supplier nabbed at prison

TANGERANG: Tangerang Police arrested a woman on Thursday for
trying to smuggle narcotics into the Tangerang Penitentiary for
an inmate.

Tangerang Police chief Adj. Insp. Sunardi said that the
suspect, identified as Rusmaini Rahman, 39, a resident of Central
Jakarta, was visiting her boyfriend Sidik, who is serving time
for illegal weapon possession.

A female guard searched her and her bag filled with food for
her boyfriend, and found three packets of shabu-shabu (crystal
methamphetamine) wrapped in aluminum foil inside a box of sachets
of coffee mix.

According to Sunardi, the suspect said she bought the drug
from a supplier in Jakarta for Rp 500,000 per packet.

"We are questioning her for further investigation," Sunardi
added.--JP
