Nghe An police dismantled a transnational drug trafficking ring; seized 30 kg of crystal meth.

Previously, the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department (Nghe An Provincial Police) and Xieng Khouang Provincial Police (Laos) discovered that drug "ringleaders" in border provinces with Nghe An continued to connect with some domestic subjects, forming transnational drug trafficking lines with the method of hiding drugs near landmarks and deserted locations in the border area of ​​Ta Ca commune, Ky Son district.
