Police bust major China-to-Vietnam drug ring, arrest 16 people

VOV.VN - Sixteen Vietnamese residents of the cities of Ha Long and Cam Pha are accused of being part of a drug ring that smuggled major quantities of illicit drugs into the northern Vietnam region from China.

These are very well-organized criminal enterprises, said Quang Ninh provincial law enforcement officials that made the busts at a June 9 news conference.

These individuals are responsible, we believe, for importing enormous amounts of drugs including heroin, crystal meth, ketamine, marijuana and drug paraphernalia into Vietnam, they noted.

In connection with the arrest of the 16 suspects law enforcement authorities seized untold amounts of crystal meth, three kilos of ketamine along with an estimated 100 boxes containing shisha and other items including many weapons.
