Jakarta. Police in Aceh have started destroying about eight hectares of marijuana plants found growing in Seulimeum subdistrict.
Aceh’s top
cop, Adj. Sen. Comr. Heru Novianto, said police found the field last week, but
efforts to locate the growers have so far been unsuccessful.
“The police
are still trying to identify who owns the field and who works there,” Heru
said, as quoted by state-run news agency Antara. “We believe that there are
other marijuana fields in this area.”
Officers
started destroying the plants on Thursday. However, given the size of the field
and difficult access, it could take until Tuesday next week before all the
plants are removed.
Heru said
three people were spotted in the area on Thursday night, but fled.
