Phnom Penh: Cambodian police are now searching for a Nigerian man in Phnom Penh, who allegedly handed over the drugs to the Japanese 'mule' to take to a Ghanaian man in Japan.
https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50692004/j ... ling-drugsGen Chito said the customs police officer on duty saw the drugs hidden in Shunichi’s luggage as it passed through the scanning machine. The suspect was arrested immediately afterwards.
“He was caught carrying drugs at the Phnom Penh International Airport after the customs police inspected his luggage.
“Police seized a total of seven bags of crystal methamphetamine, weighing 1,705.85 grams [nearly 2kg]. The drugs were stored in plastics and tucked at the bottom of his luggage,” told Gen Chito to Khmer Times.
He added during police interrogation, Shunichi confessed to the offence, saying he was hired by an unidentified Ghanaian man living in Japan to travel to the Kingdom and smuggle out drugs received from an unidentified Nigerian man in Phnom Penh.
Aside from the promised payment, the suspect’s travel expenditures, including his food and accommodations, were paid for by the unidentified Ghanaian.
The suspect confessed to receiving $1,000 upon his arrival to Phnom Penh on February 12 and meeting the Nigerian man at a hotel to receive the package the following day.
A search, Lieu Gen Vannak said, is now underway for the arrest of other suspects related to the case.

Re: 72-Year-Old Japanese Man caught Smuggling Meth From Cambodia
How greedy can ya get? A 72 year old Japanese is already plenty rich. Sure he'll live another 20 to 30 years, but that's pure greed!
Re: 72-Year-Old Japanese Man caught Smuggling Meth From Cambodia
how can anyone assume a Man in his 70s is already rich enough?
that is pure nonsense..
Watch Clint Eastwood's flic The Mule..
Did I miss some news flash that all elderly Japanese men are rich?
Perhaps, he lost his bundle at a shit hole casino?
Maybe he needs money for his wife's surgery?
He did not seem greedy..
He seemed desperate ...
so fucked up..
this evil shit going all over poisoning people.. destroying lives...users and non-users.
that is pure nonsense..

No, It's pure '' stupidity ''. Which is why a 72 year old was targeted.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

True that! And he's probably never even tried methamphetamine. That's the shit they used to pump up and embolden kamikaze pilots and he's way too young to have done that!

Re: 72-Year-Old Japanese Man caught Smuggling Meth From Cambodia
Plenty of drug gangs, (or back in the day, gold smugglers) that move small amounts (less than 5 kilos) often use older persons as they are less likely to be searched.j57 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 18, 2020 7:40 am how can anyone assume a Man in his 70s is already rich enough?

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
