(Baonghean.vn) - Thanh and Quang were caught red-handed while illegally buying and selling drugs at a motel in Ben Thuy ward, Vinh city. The police seized 6,000 synthetic drug pills in a backpack, which were about to be brought to Hue city for sale.

Since mid-April 2020, Vinh City Police have identified a drug trafficking ring that illegally traffics large quantities of drugs from Laos to Vinh City for consumption and then transits to the Central provinces.

The case was quickly established, in which the main suspect was identified as Bui Van Thanh (born in 1983), residing in Sub-zone 5, Quan Hau town, Quang Ninh district (Quang Binh province).

According to police documents, in 2018, Bui Van Thanh was sentenced to 15 months in prison by the Hue City Court for "Illegal possession of narcotics". After being released from prison in June 2019, in order to have money to satisfy his addiction, Thanh continued to engage in his "old profession" of buying and selling drugs. After a period of monitoring, the Special Task Force grasped the pattern of Thanh's activities, which was to frequently go to Nghe An to buy drugs for consumption in the Central provinces, especially Thua Thien Hue province.

On the morning of May 5, 2020, through professional work, it was determined that Thanh was preparing to trade a large amount of drugs, the right time to crack the case had come. At about 9:30 a.m. on May 5, 2020, at Block 14, Ben Thuy Ward (Vinh City), Vinh City Police presided over and coordinated with Dien Chau Traffic Police Station (Department PC08, Nghe An Provincial Police) to successfully discover the case, catching Bui Van Thanh (born in 1983), residing in Quan Hau town, Quang Ninh district (Quang Binh) and Nguyen Nhat Quang (born in 1993), residing in Tuong Duong district (Nghe An) for illegally buying and selling drugs, seizing 6,000 synthetic drug pills and 500g of crystal meth.

Nguyen Nhat Quang was addicted to drugs at the age of 17 and had 2 previous convictions for drugs. In 2013, Nguyen Nhat Quang was sentenced to 8 years in prison by the Hue City Court for "Illegal drug trafficking". In August 2019, after being released from prison, Quang met Thanh and was lured into this drug trafficking ring by Thanh.

On May 4, 2020, Bui Van Thanh took a bus from Hue city to Vinh city, then invited Nguyen Nhat Quang to go get goods, then both returned to Quang's motel in Ben Thuy ward to rest.

Vinh City Police said: At the time of the arrest, both Quang and Thanh were staying at Thanh's motel in Ben Thuy Ward (Vinh City). At that time, Thanh was carrying a backpack containing 6,000 synthetic drug pills to prepare to catch a bus to Hue City.

Currently, Vinh City Police are criminally detaining Bui Van Thanh and Nguyen Nhat Quang to continue investigating and expanding the case.
