Vietnamese authorities have busted a large drug trafficking ring from Laos to Vietnam and then to China.
Receiving information from local people that a large drug racket was operating in Tuong Duong and Do Luong districts in Nghe An province, Nam Dinh’s police in coordination with the Marine Police Command and Drug Crime Investigation Department (C47) investigated tip offs.
On April 20, they caught Dinh Xuan Lai red-handed, trafficking 10 heroin cakes and 28 ecstasy tablets.
Lai, the ring’s leader, confessed he lives in Do Luong district, Nghe An province, and he had just finished a 25-year imprisonment term.
Lai often contacted Lao people to traffic heroin through Luong Minh Border Gate in Tuong Duong district, Nghe An province, and then transport it to Ninh Binh and Nam Dinh, where the drug is shipped to China.
The case is still open to investigation.
