Previously, from the beginning of June 2020, through the work of grasping the situation, the police of Ky Son district discovered that Tho Va Phia had signs of suspected drug trafficking from Laos to Ky Son district. A special investigation was quickly established.
After a period of monitoring the subject's movements, on August 6, receiving information that the subject would store a large amount of "goods" in a shack he had built in the forest in Nam Can commune, Ky Son district, the task force decided to crack the case.
Recognizing that this was a dangerous subject, the Task Force carefully prepared plans, wearing bulletproof vests, equipped with guns and protective equipment, and sent scouts to "set up positions" at key points, tightly surrounding the area where the subject lived. At around 11:00 a.m. on August 6, in the forest of Nam Can commune, the working group of Ky Son district police caught the subject and the evidence red-handed.
