COPS REVISIT BUKIT KERINCHI DADAH HAUNT

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 25:

Located on the highest point of Bukit Kerinchi and 500 metres from the
nearest house, this spot could have been a suitable weekend escape for
city folk.

But dadah addicts and pushers had turned it into their haven.

Police cleared the spot six months ago, but in a surprise check early
yesterday, they found it 're-occupied'.

The more disturbing discovery is that the dadah haunt is run in a more
organised manner.

A police team from the Brickfields narcotic division surprised five
suspected addicts, including a 21-year-old woman, from their sleep
about 5.30am.

It is learnt that there were more suspects at the haunt, but many
escaped.

Police seized 42 tubes containing heroin and 15 tubes containing syabu
at the haunt.

The suspects, in their 20s and 30s, were remanded for further
investigation.
