Man arrested, 2,000 yaba pills worth RM30,000 seized in Gua Musang

GUA MUSANG – Police arrested a local man and seized about 2,000 pills believed to be yaba, weighing 200 grams, valued at RM30,000, during checks at Kilometre 18, Jalan Gua Musang-Kuala Lipis yesterday.

Gua Musang police chief Superintendent Sik Choon Foo said the 49-year-old suspect was arrested at about 6 pm after trying to flee when his Toyota Vios was stopped for checks by a Mobile Patrol Vehicle (MPV) unit from the Gua Musang District Police Headquarters.

He said police pursued and detained the suspect before a search of the vehicle led to the discovery of the suspected yaba pills.

“A preliminary urine screening test found the suspect positive for methamphetamine,” he said in a statement today.
