Drug dealer arrested in Bali

DENPASAR, Bali: Police arrested a suspected drug dealer here
on Tuesday, seizing 0.5 kilograms of marijuana found in the man's
possession.

Bali Police Narcotics Division chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Wayan
Suwena said that 26-year-old Darwin Baringbing, alias Darwin
Tampubolon, was arrested at around 1 a.m. by undercover police
officers claiming to be buyers.

He was waiting for potential buyers in a dark corner of Jl.
Bagus Teruna, in Bali's prime tourism area of Kuta, when two
undercover detectives approached him and asked for drugs.

"We arrested him when he showed some samples of the
contraband," Suwena said.

The officers searched him and found two packages of dried
marijuana, each weighing around 200 grams. The officers then
searched his rented room on Jl. Sahadewa where they found another
300 grams of dried marijuana in a plastic bag.

"He said he got the marijuana from somebody called Romy in
Jakarta," Suwena said. (zen)
