Malaysian police arrest a 29-year-old Singaporean man at Ipoh’s airport after finding suspected cannabis meant for London. VnExpress International says the man accepted an online job offer paying S$4,000 to deliver luggage to London and had cannabis worth about RM1.52 million (US$375,000).
Other outlets describe a similar attempt in which the suspect is lured by a promised payment to carry a bag of contraband. Free Malaysia Today adds that police say he was tricked with a lucrative work offer, but also frames the luggage as containing “fake branded luxury items” alongside the drugs. BH Berita Harian focuses on the seizure details reported by police, describing 19 kilograms of compressed cannabis leaves.
All three accounts agree on the key outline: an Ipoh-area airport arrest, a Singaporean suspect, cannabis valued at RM1.52 million, and London as the destination.
