Shariah Police Head in Aceh Tests Positive for Drug Use After Car Accident
The head of the Lhokseumawe Public Order Agency (Satpol PP) and Shariah Police in Aceh has tested positive for marijuana use after slamming his car into a tree and a house on Sunday night, police said.
Shariah Police officer Zulkarnain lost control of his car after leaving his office in Simpang Asmi, Kutablang village on Sunday. Another officer came to investigate the accident, where he discovered hashish inside Zulkarnains car.
His urine test shows that he was consuming drugs, head of the Lhokseumawe police narcotics division, First. Insp. Poeloeng Arsa, told Atjehpost.com on Monday.
Zulkarnain was not arrested after the officer found the illegal substance because injuries he sustained during the accident required immediate treatment. He was admitted to the Kasih Ibu Hospital, where he received 20 stitches for a wound on his lips.
Poeloeng told Detik.com that Zulkarnain will be questioned by police after he recovers from his injuries.
Zulkarnain, who has been the head of the Shariah Police since December 2012, denied the allegation that he was under the influence of marijuana before the accident. He said that he lost control of his car when one of his front tires blew.
