Jakarta Police announced Tuesday it had arrested a suspect for allegedly running a meth lab at a house in the affluent Citra Garden housing complex in Kalideres, West Jakarta.
Police seized 5,000 Ecstasy pills, 200 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine and 500 kilograms of generic drug ingredients during the raid. “The seized evidence is valued at around Rp 170 billion (US$18.7 million),” Jakarta Police narcotics unit chief Sr. Comr. Anjan Pramuka Putra told reporters.
According to Anjan, the police raided the two-story house on Monday night after conducting intensive surveillance for almost two months. Anjan said the police had previously tried to catch the suspect, Anthony Widjaja, red-handed through a number of failed undercover stings.
