Two arrested for having marijuana

JAKARTA (JP): A police patrol in West Jakarta arrested two men and confiscated 600 grams of marijuana Friday.

City Police spokesman Lt. Col. E. Aritonang said Sunday the two men were on their way to sell the drug in several discotheques in West Jakarta.

Aritonang said the men, identified as An Jok, 21, and Tan Kiong Nyat, 40, were arrested while passing through the Jembatan Lima area, West Jakarta, on Friday night.

"Police stopped their motorcycle and searched them because they looked very nervous when they passed the patrol car," Aritonang said.

The two men were detained at the West Jakarta police precinct for further investigation, Aritonang said. (cst)
