Breaking a drug ring by post

HA NOI – A foreign drug ring, smuggling drugs into Vietnam by post, was busted yesterday by Ha Noi's police and customs forces, and the Drug Criminals Investigation Agency (C17) run by the Ministry of Public Security.

Trương Thị Nga, Nguyễn Thị Hồng Vân and Nguyễn Hà Chung, were arrested at Thanh Xuân Post Office in Ha Noi on Wednesday.

Evidence included more than 450 grams of dried marijuana flower bubs, hidden inside two cell phones in a parcel sent from Canada to Ms Trương Thị Nga, of the Hà Vân Limited Company based in Thanh Xuân District.

C17 will co-operate with district police and the Hà Nội Customs Department in further investigations. - VNS
