VAPING NEWS: MALAYSIA [E-liquid Raid & Seizure]

“A total of 22,500 bottles of flavoured vape liquid estimated to be worth RM825,000 were seized by a team from the 9th Battalion of the General Operations Force (GOF9) at a house in Kampung Degong Telaga Mas, Pasir Mas, early today. GOF9 commanding officer Supt Nor Azizan Yusof said they also arrested a 30-year-old local man in the 1am raid. He said a number of boxes were found in the passenger seat of the van, and further inspections revealed that the boxes contained bottles of vape liquid. “All the vape flavours are believed to be smuggled into neighbouring countries through “rat lanes” around Pasir Mas, and sold on the black market at higher prices. The seized items will be handed over to the Ministry of Health Malaysia and the case will be investigated under Section 13 (a) of the Poisons Act 1952,” he said.”

NOTE: RM825,000 is approximately $204,000 U.S.
