GUA MUSANG: Police seized two shotguns and 46 five-man live bullets in a car in Jalan Aring Empat here earlier today. They also had 29 yaba pills, known as the “drug of insanity.”
Kelantan Police Chief Shafien Mamat said the vehicle carrying the five men, aged between 25 and 38, was stopped by a team from the Gua Musang District Police Headquarters (IPD) at 2.30 a.m. the dawn.
“During the inspection, the police found two shotguns with 46 live bullets of various types that were kept separately in the vehicle. The five men did not present the weapons license either.

Shafien said one of the men also tested positive for methamphetamine.
