At around 10am on January 6, Ly was driving a motorbike on National Highway 8A through Son Le Commune (Huong Son District) when Ha Tinh Provincial Police in coordination with Huong Son District Police signaled him to stop for inspection on suspicion of transporting drugs. Ly turned around and tried to run away, but was stopped.
At the scene, police seized dozens of blue nylon bags containing 6,000 ecstasy pills from the motorbike’s trunk. Authorities determined that the synthetic drug batch was worth about 1 billion VND.
