On the afternoon of September 25, the Tan Son Nhat International Airport Customs Branch under the Ho Chi Minh City Customs Department said that this unit, in coordination with other functional units, discovered a case of transporting crystal meth by air to Vietnam.

400 grams of crystal meth was disguised as a gift package sent by air.

A 25-year-old female suspect, a Vietnamese national, was recently arrested for illegally transporting drugs while receiving a shipment of crystal meth disguised as a gift sent from the US to Vietnam via air at Tan Son Nhat airport.

After inspecting and searching the suspect's gift shipment, customs forces discovered 400 grams of methamphetamine cleverly hidden in shampoo, clothes, candy and nutritional powder boxes, in order to evade inspection by authorities.

Currently, Tan Son Nhat Airport Customs has handed over all people and evidence to the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department - Ho Chi Minh City Police for further investigation./.
