MALAYSIA: Wannabe chemists made drugs by watching YouTube

[Jabberwocky]

JOHOR BARU: The exploits of two wannabe chemists ? who learnt how to process drugs by watching YouTube ? were short-lived when police raided a house in Muar.

Besides being an underground drug lab, the house in Jalan Sulaiman, had also been used as a temple.

The suspects, aged 31 and 41, were arrested at about 4.30pm last Friday.

Johor police chief Comm Datuk Mohd Khalil Kader Mohd said various drugs worth RM1.4mil were seized during the raid.

They included 13.44kg of white powder believed to be ecstasy, ketamine (362.3g), ganja (299.3g) and syabu (53g).

Also found were equipment and potential drug ingredients.

Comm Mohd Khalil said police also seized three vehicles worth RM54,000 and RM4,000 in cash.

Both suspects have a previous record for drug offences, added Comm Mohd Khalil during a press conference held at the state police headquarters here.

?We also found several apparatus and ingredients that we believe were used to process the drugs, which included liquid colouring, spirit, sodium chloride, alcohol, acetone and halogen lights,? he said.

Both the suspects also tested positive for methamphetamine.

The duo were remanded for seven days until Jan 26 to facilitate investigations.

Halogen lights? Food coloring? Table salt?

Something tells me this is far from a "super lab".

What about that suspicious looking tray of bloody rodent livers in the bottom left corner?
