KUALA LUMPUR - An Indonesian man suspected of being the mastermind of a drug trafficking syndicate was arrested, along with five locals, in raids at a condominium in Jalan Ampang here, last Friday.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Allaudeen Abdul Majid said the raid resulted in the seizure of 10 kilogrammes syabu estimated to be worth RM341,000 and three vehicles, comprising a Toyota Alphard, a Toyota Vios and a Perodua Alza.
