PAGE TO CONTINUE CONTENTS Suyudi said IM knows how to mix class I drugs from a person named JN. Armed with that knowledge, he created a hidden factory to manufacture these hopeful items. “They didn’t have a job and brother IM learned from someone called JN, so he was able to operate like that. To this day, he still seems to be doing the same thing,” he said. As a result, Suyudi confirmed that his party will hunt down a person with the initials JN who has been referred to as the suspect IM.

Then the illegally manufactured methamphetamine was sold online by the suspects. Suyudi explained that the perpetrators had their own network of buyers to sell the shabu they produced online. They then agreed to meet to process the transaction to deliver the illegal goods. “The marketing this group does uses mobile phones,” he explained. “The people who were part of this group’s network then make an appointment in one place, place the goods, they control them from a distance and then the buyer takes them. But there are also those who hand them over immediately,” Suyudi continued.
