Tuaran District Police Chief Deputy Superintendent Mohd Hamizi Halim said the two suspects, in their 30s and 40s, were heading to Tuaran from Kota Kinabalu when their car was stopped at 6.30pm. He said the drugs were recovered from the car following an inspection and the two suspects were taken to the Tuaran District Police Headquarters (IPD) for further action.
