Five vehicles were also seized during the raids.

“Investigations showed all four rented premises were used to store drugs for about three months.

“We believe the syndicate was active for the past four months,” he said, adding that background checks showed all three suspects had prior records for drug-related offences.

It is believed the racket was active in processing and distributing the drugs for the Klang Valley market.-The Star
