Cambodia News (Banteay Meanchey): First of all, on June 28, 2020, the police arrested a 47-year-old woman, named Toy Sothea, with some packets of methamphetamine and 200 WY pills (aka yama or yaba), in Ouambel village, Serey Sophon district, Banteay Meanchey.

The police then went with the suspect to search her house. When they arrived at the house, the suspect's husband tried to escape, but he was arrested immediately with three other packets of white powder and some equipment for using drugs.
