JAKARTA, KOMPAS.TV - The Narcotics Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya raided a warehouse stockpiling and producing illegal masks at the Central Cakung Block i warehouse number 11, Cakung Cilincing, North Jakarta, Thursday (27/2/2020).

The warehouse for storing and producing masks belongs to PT Uno Mitra Persada as a marketing company.

Meanwhile, PT Unotec Mega Persada is a mask production company.

Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya, Kombes Yusri Yunus, said that they were producing masks illegally which did not have a distribution or production permit from the Indonesian Ministry of Health.

Then, they sold one box of masks for IDR 230,000.

During the raid, the police confiscated 600 boxes containing 30,000 masks ready for distribution.

"After we carried out a raid and search at this location, it turned out that this place was not only stockpiling, it was even producing illegally, which did not comply with standards, and did not have permission from the Ministry of Health," said Yusri at the Central Cakung warehouse, Cakung Cilincing, North Jakarta, Friday (28/2/2020).

Yusri explained that the warehouse raid started with information from the public regarding the scarcity of masks which was thought to be caused by hoarding of masks.
