Police seize ‘ganja’ toothpaste sent to 2 politicians

The parcel contained toothpaste bought from an online platform and was sent by a person with an address in Indonesia.

PUTRAJAYA: Police have confiscated a parcel believed to contain a tube of toothpaste infused with cannabis leaf extract which was addressed to two politicians.

Sepang police chief Wan Kamarul Azran Wan Yusof said the parcel contained a tube of toothpaste bearing a cannabis leaf logo and the words ‘Happy Green’ written on it.

The item had been purchased through an online platform by the sender with an address in Indonesia.

Kamarul said the raid on the courier office was carried out following a report lodged by an officer at a government office who received a phone call informing them about the parcel.

He said the government office had also received a parcel containing cannabis leaves last week.

“An initial investigation found that the seized item had no connection with the addressees. Further investigation continues,” he added.
