Malaysian man caught trying to smuggle $361,000 worth of drugs, including over 8kg of cannabis, at Woodlands CheckpointA 22-year-old Malaysian man was arrested after allegedly trying to smuggle over $361,000 worth of drugs in a Malaysia-registered car arriving at Woodlands Checkpoint.
The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) said officers had directed the car for enhanced checks on the morning of Aug 1.
They uncovered a box in the car boot that contained two blocks of substances believed to contain controlled drugs.
The drugs are worth more than $361,000 and could potentially feed the addiction of about 2,132 abusers for a week, said ICA in a news release.
ICA said it will continue to work closely with CNB to prevent attempts to smuggle drugs across Singapore’s borders.
