KUALA LUMPUR – Police have discovered furanyl fentanyl, dubbed the “zombie drug” and believed to be 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine, being sold openly in vape outlets. The revelation came after Bukit Aman’s Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (JSJN) launched Op Vape 1.0 nationwide from April 13, resulting in seizures worth RM4.6 million.
