Busting down a drug ring led by a 'playboy'

As the only son of the owner of a famous restaurant in the flower city of Da Lat, with a billion-dollar fortune, Pham Dinh Lan (born in 1979) nevertheless became addicted to the "brown fairy" and gambling.

To serve his debauchery, Lan ran a methamphetamine trafficking ring for many years, gathering under his command 7 "disciples" - "satellites", including a beautiful "hot girl", who was his "favorite disciple" and right-hand man. Thanks to his sophistication, cunning, and many "tricks" in dealing with the police, Lan continuously "escaped" the arrests of the authorities. "A thick orange peel has sharp nails", one day the whole gang had to be handcuffed.

Pham Dinh Lan and Tran Le Dai Trang

Pham Dinh Lan is the only son of Mrs. L. - the owner of a fairly famous restaurant on Tran Phu Street (Ward 3, Da Lat City, Lam Dong). For a long time, information about Pham Dinh Lan "having a good family", being an only child, but unfortunately he became an "addict" and then got involved in a drug trafficking ring, causing a stir among the public in Da Lat City. From being a drug addict who secretly bought drugs for use, he gradually ran a ring that trafficked crystal meth and ecstasy from Ho Chi Minh City to sell to drug addicts and complex entertainment venues.

Among his trusted “disciples”, Lan especially trusted Tran Le Dai Trang (born in 1990, residing in Ward 10, Da Lat City). Trang was quite beautiful and a heavy drug addict. In addition to directly receiving drugs from Ho Chi Minh City, which Lan controlled, Trang also sold drugs to addicts and collected debts, transferring money to the “boss”’s account.

To run a drug ring smoothly for many years, Lan used many tricks to deal with the authorities. He proved to be a wise and cunning person. He never directly delivered drugs, but often assigned this task to his "disciples". When someone called to buy "goods", Lan sent his "younger brother" to the meeting point to collect the money first, then sent another "disciple" to hide the drugs at a location and then informed the addict to come and collect them.

At his residence, he installed a camera system around the house to monitor and used the staff at his family's restaurant as his eyes and ears. If any suspicious signs were detected, the "satellites" would notify Lan. In particular, Lan's bedroom was equipped with... 4 layers of wooden and iron doors that were welded very firmly. Lan "bragged" to his "henchmen" that he had strong relationships, so they could operate with peace of mind.

The subject does not stay in one place but often moves to different places: Ho Chi Minh City - Nha Trang - Da Lat, "appearing and disappearing". In addition to being addicted to drugs, gambling, betting, Lan is also rumored to be "addicted" to the youngest. Any girl who agrees to "take care of her until the end" will be taken home by Lan to use drugs together. The existence of this gang is increasingly causing pain and indignation in public opinion.
