In what one officer dubbed the “biggest drug case of the year”, anti-drug police have confiscated more than 40 kilograms of drugs, including heroin and methamphetamine, from a pair of Chinese nationals in the capital’s Tuol Kork district.
The seizure, which took place over the course of two arrests – the first of which came on Thursday – included ecstasy pills, bottles of ketamine, heroin, methamphetamine and a yet-to-be tested substance that San Sothy, deputy director at the anti-drug department in the Interior Ministry, said is a likely precursor used in the manufacture of drugs.
“It is still not clear what the last substance is,” he said, confirming the nationality of the two suspects. “The suspects said the substance was used to produce ‘K’, which means ketamine.”
