Legendary Indonesian musician Fariz RM is once again in trouble with the law regarding drugs . The man who is famous for his iconic song, Sakura, was arrested by the South Jakarta Metro Police Narcotics Investigation Unit. The arrest took place in the Bandung area, West Java, and became hot news among music fans and the general public.
In this arrest, the police managed to confiscate evidence in the form of crystal methamphetamine and marijuana. "Yes, we secured evidence in the form of marijuana and crystal methamphetamine," said AKBP Andri Kurniawan, Head of the South Jakarta Metro Police Narcotics Investigation Unit, on Wednesday (2/19).
However, until now, the police have not revealed the details of the chronology of Fariz RM's arrest. After being arrested, Fariz RM was taken to the South Jakarta Metro Police for further investigation. Investigators are still investigating this case to gather more complete information.
Fariz RM's arrest track record
This is not the first time Fariz RM has been caught in a drug case. On October 28, 2007, he was arrested on Jalan Radio Dalam, South Jakarta, with evidence of 1.5 rolls of marijuana weighing 5 grams stored in a cigarette pack. Then, in 2015, he was arrested again while smoking marijuana at his home in Bintaro Jaya, South Tangerang, where the police found marijuana in an ashtray on the table.
A similar case happened to him again on August 24, 2018, when he was arrested at his residence with evidence in the form of two plastic clip packages containing crystal methamphetamine, nine Alprazolam pills, two Dumolid pills, and a crystal methamphetamine smoking device. This shows that Fariz RM has a long history of drug problems, which of course has become a public concern.
