IPOH: A presenter at a local radio station has been arrested for possession of a pistol and live bullets.

Perak CID chief SAC Yahya Abd Rahman said the 47-year-old man was detained during a special operation at KM28, Kampung Bahagia, by traffic police from the Sungai Siput district police headquarters.



“During the special operation, a team of traffic policemen from Sungai Siput stopped a yellow Toyota Wish vehicle using a beacon light.

“A check on the driver revealed a Walther semi-automatic pistol with a magazine containing seven live bullets,” he said when contacted here yesterday.

He said further inspections found a backpack in the front passenger seat containing another magazine with seven rounds of ammunition and 18 live bullets.
