Cops bust drug lab
SHAH ALAM: Selangor police have busted a mini-laboratory producing syabu and ephedrine in Taman Putra Prima, Puchong.
Deputy state police chief Senior Asst Comm I Mohmad Salleh said a police team investigating a car theft case stumbled upon the laboratory last Friday after finding a stolen Proton Perdana and a Proton Wira parked in the compound of the double storey terrace house.
The Proton Perdana had been reported missing in Sungei Way, Petaling Jaya while the Wira had been reported missing in Klang.
"The house was installed with CCTV cameras but the 29-year-old suspect was too busy processing drugs when the police team raided the house at about 6pm and did not notice them moving in," he told a press conference Tuesday.
He said police seized 600g of syabu that was being dried before being compressed into pills, 18kg of ephedrine placed in 18 aluminium coated plastic bags and a packet containing 30g of syabu.
The drugs are estimated to be worth about RM300,000.
Also confiscated were 40 bottles of alcohol, two bottles and three jars of chloroform, a sack of coal, a bottle of hydrochloric acid, four gas containers, two stoves, four pots and other items used to process syabu.
He said the suspect had rented the house about two-and-a-half months ago and was believed to have started the laboratory about two months ago.
He said the suspect had three previous convictions for robbery, drugs and illegal betting related cases.
