KUALA LUMPUR: Police have found drugs, believed to be ecstasy pills worth RM235,044, inside a parked car in a parking bay of a residence at Jalan Ipoh on Tuesday.
Kuala Lumpur Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department chief ACP Adnan Azizon said that the drugs were found at 5.30 pm after the interrogation of a male suspect, aged 43, which led police to the vehicle.
He said that a total of 13,058 pills weighing about 4.3 kilogrammes were seized, which could have supplied 13,000 drug addicts in the country.
