T

he National Police arrested on Wednesday a suspected drug dealer in the parking lot of Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII) cultural park, East Jakarta.

The suspect was carrying with him 10 kilograms of methamphetamine and four packets of ecstasy, the police’s narcotics division deputy chief Sr. Comr. Krisno Siregar confirmed.

“The case is still under development,” Krisno said as quoted by tribunnews.com.

An amateur video recording showed a man being detained in the Snow Bay TMII parking lot, with plainclothes officers searching his bag, which was found to be filled with drugs.

The suspect was arrested as he was walking out of the attraction to his car, allegedly to complete a drug transaction in the TMII grounds.

The suspect was taken to the Cawang Narcotics division headquarters in East Jakarta for further questioning. (jlm)
