A Thousand Aceh Police Officers Identified as Drug Users | The Jakarta Globe

A Thousand Aceh Police Officers Identified as Drug Users | The Jakarta Globe: "Banda Aceh. About a thousand police officers, out of 13,000, in Aceh were identified as drug users, Aceh police chief Ins. Gen. Iskandar Hasan said on Tuesday.

Iskandar said the number of police officers who were found to be drug users was between 850 and 1,000. One hundred and eighty nine of the officers were sent to a month-long training and guidance session for drug users at the Aceh Police station.

“We’ll see whether they will change or not in a month using the indicators we have set up,” Iskandar said. “If they cannot be changed, we’re going to fire them.”

The National Narcotics Agency conducted hair tests to determine if the officers were using drugs. A former subdistrict police chief was among those who tested positive."
