Papua New Guinea Police Commissioner David Manning has confirmed to local media that his men intercepted and confiscated 250 kilograms of illegal drugs methamphetamine and apprehended two Malaysians and two Papua New Guineans after being tipped off during the early hours of 2am today in NCD. Manning says a small quantity of the illegal substance was supposed to be posted overseas but was intercepted by police. This led to the arrest of the two PNG nationals and two expatriates of Malaysian origin. Manning says there is an emergence of a well organized crime syndicate involving nationals and expatriates and it is posing a threat to National security as well as threat to the young and mobile population of Papua New Guinea. The suspects are in police custody and will be charged under the Amended Act on Dangerous Drugs Act and other Proceeds Crime Act and Money Laundering Act. Manning commends his policemen for this successful operation under the leadership of Deputy Commissioner
