"In efforts to secure the quality of the environment, Melaka police used the services of Kualiti Alam Sdn Bhd to dispose of the drugs because the company had the equipment and expertise to carry out scheduled disposal procedures at the Ladang Tanah Merah A3 Division, Bukit Pelandok, Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan.

"All court cases involving the drugs have been completed and the drugs were ordered to be disposed of," he said in a statement, here tonight.
