He said the syndicate was crippled through two special operations – Op Casa and Op Pintu – conducted after a special task force was formed in September to investigate two armed robberies reported in Kota Kinabalu in August.
Six men aged between 30 and 43, with a combined record of 75 criminal and drug-related cases, were detained. Police are also hunting several other suspects who remain at large.
