Inmate suspected of running drug ring

BANDUNG, West Java: Following the arrest of six suspected drug
dealers over the weekend, the Bandung Police announced they
suspected an inmate was controlling the city's drug trade from
inside prison.

The police came to this conclusion after collecting
information from the suspected dealers, one of whom reportedly
admitted to being part of a gang controlled by the inmate.

"We are currently gathering evidence to confirm the
information given to us by the suspects that an inmate was
involved in the drug trade," said the head of the Bandung
Police's narcotics unit, Comr. Asep Zaenal.

The six suspects were arrested while allegedly selling crystal
methamphetamine (shabu-shabu). Police confiscated three grams of
shabu-shabu from the suspects. -- Antara
