Drug trafficker arrested

Border guards in collaboration with customs forces from Quang Binh province on June 1 arrested one suspect, seizing 600 tablets of drugs.

The suspect accused of illegally transporting the drugs from Laos to Vietnam via Vietnam’s Cha Lo border gate is a 22 years old man named Son, living in Khi Lec town, Nhom Ma Lat district, Khammouan province in Laos.

Law enforcement officials also confiscated one black Wave motorcycle, LAK260,000 (the Lao currency) and one cell phone. 

Son reportedly admitted he engaged in the transportation of narcotics through the border gate to sell in Ha Tinh and Quang Binh provinces.

Officials are continuing their investigation into the case.
