JOHOR BARU: Four men and a woman held for illicit sex at a makeshift hut near a city hotel here, were also high on drugs. “We believe the five used the hut to satisfy their drug habits and for sex,” said National Anti-Drug Agency (AADK) chief enforcement officer Zulhilmi Ahmat.

He also believed the suspects were involved in wayside robberies as they found several laptop bags and handbags as well as several pieces of MyKad and credit cards in the hut, located near the Rasa Sayang Hotel along Jalan Dato Dalam.
Zulhilmi said the suspects, all in their 20s, would be referred to drug rehabilitation centres. He said a team of 15 enforcement officers from the agency raided the place at about 3.30pm yesterday following a tip-off. “When we arrived, we saw the four men and the woman hanging around the hut.
“Initial investigations revealed that the five had taken drugs moments before the raid took place,” he said. Zulhilmi said the team also raided another suspected drug addicts’ haunt at Jalan Susur 2 Tun Razak, near a shopping mall here, but no arrests were made.
