SINGAPORE, March 7 (Xinhua) -- Singapore's Central Narcotics Bureau has arrested four suspected drug traffickers and seized a significant quantity of heroin and cannabis, with an estimated worth of exceeding 619,000 Singapore dollars (about 464,250 U.S. dollars).

According to a statement released on Thursday, the drugs seized could have sustained the addiction of approximately 2,630 abusers for a week. The four Singaporean suspects were apprehended in two separate operations conducted on Tuesday.

The bureau also urged the public to remain vigilant against drug traffickers who attempt to sell harmful controlled substances disguised as everyday edibles. These illicit products, often packaged to appear as harmless candies or snacks, pose a serious risk to consumers.

Investigations into the suspects' drug-related activities are ongoing. (1 Singapore dollar equals 0.75 U.S. dollars) Enditem
