Drug Mule Arrested with 2Kgs of "Chinese Tea"
(Banteay Meanchey): On September 3, 2020, at Chakrey village, Chob Vary commune, Pranet Preah district, Banteay Meanchey province, the armed forces arrested a man identified as Kim Huot, male, 37 years old, no occupation, currently living in Pursat province.
Before the arrest, the military received information from the network of information agencies that the suspect was involved in drug trafficking. After receiving the information, the specialized force of the Office of Drug Crimes investigated and arrested the suspect at the scene and sent him to the Provincial Gendarmerie for further questioning.
The suspect confessed that he was paid US$1,500 to deliver the drugs, and that this was the second time that he made a delivery. Based on the confession and the above evidence, the military officers concluded that the suspect was indeed involved in drug trafficking.
The Armed Forces confiscated some materials and evidence, including 2 large packages of methamphetamine (also called "ice"), packaged as Chinese tea*, weighing 2,064 grams, a black and gray Toyota Corolla with license plate Phnom Penh 2E 3600, and 2 mobile phones.
*Methamphetamine traffickers in South East Asia are commonly found carrying 1 kilogram packets of drugs disguised as "Chinese tea".
