"Authorities must track the drug dealer network to its roots. Besides being dangerous, the effects of drugs can cause death," explained Andi Rio Idris Padjalangi.
Andi Rio Idris Padjalangi is concerned about the increasing circulation of drugs in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, he asked the police to be more alert and aware of the routes that are prone to drug trafficking.
The police must work together with relevant stakeholders to uncover and arrest drug networks that enter South Sulawesi and the territory of Indonesia.
"Drug circulation is getting higher, this is proof that the threat of drugs is real in South Sulawesi. Various methods are used for drug dealers to trick officers in the field into getting away with bringing illegal goods into Indonesia. The National Police, National Anti Narcotics Agency, Customs and Excise must be synergistic at the door. goods and services enter both land, sea and air," said Andi Rio Idris Padjalangi.
