A Tawau storekeeper facing drug trafficking charges involving more than 3kg of syabu has been acquitted after the prosecution decided to withdraw the case in magistrate's court.

Two individuals have been charged with drug trafficking following the seizure of 130 kilograms of methamphetamine discovered concealed in a sport utility vehicle in Tawau last month.

Law enforcement in Tawau recovered RM16.3 million worth of narcotics in a major drug operation. Police arrested two suspects and filed charges under the Dangerous Drugs Act following the discovery.
