Malaysian authorities have intensified anti-narcotics operations at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, confiscating 653.6 kilogrammes of cannabis buds and arresting 38 suspects in ongoing enforcement efforts.
A private university student appeared in Jitra magistrate's court on trafficking charges involving 14.63kg of cannabis buds worth RM1.17 million, seized at Bukit Kayu Hitam's border complex last week.
Authorities in Besut arrested four men, including a schoolteacher, in connection with suspected cannabis distribution. The raid followed intelligence suggesting organised activity.
