Pamela Anderson, the actor's co-star in 'The Naked Gun', seems to think a late-career stint in comedy awaits him.

KOTA KINABALU: Over RM3mil in contraband has been busted in various locations here in the past month, says the state Royal Malaysian Customs Department.

“There, we found a total of 214,000 packets of cigarettes valued around RM428,000 with over RM2.86mil in unpaid taxes stored,” she said, adding they believe these items were meant to be sold in the local market. She said in the first raid, a 61-year-old man was arrested after 429 cans of beer worth RM542.59, with tax value of RM2185.73 were found in his store.

All of these suspects were believed to be selling alcohol with unpaid duties at their premises, she said.
