Previously, in early April 2018, the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department of Nghe An Province Police discovered a drug trafficking ring from Laos to Nghe An and then to other provinces in Vietnam for consumption.
Project 618P was established by the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department in coordination with Thanh Chuong District Police, Traffic Police Team 1-7 of the Road and Railway Traffic Police Department and related units to fight and destroy.
After a period of consolidating documents and synchronously using professional measures, in early June 2018, the project began to be accelerated to destroy.
Sensing the opportunity was ripe, at around 6:00 p.m. on June 21, 2018, reconnaissance teams consisting of 7 working groups were deployed from Cau Treo border gate to Thanh Chuong district, Nghe An province.
