Nguyen Van Thuy, 36, was taken into custody by police in the province of Lang Son with nearly 30 packets of heroin and 6,000 tablets of methamphetamine in her possession as she attempted to cross from Laos into Vietnam.
In an interview in the Province jail, Thuy purportedly admitted attempting to smuggle the drugs through the border gate. She also was aware she could land back in prison for a long stretch.
Thuy has not been formally charged yet.
