A case of transporting more than 80,000 tubes of plant growth stimulants from China to Hanoi was discovered and arrested by the Environmental Crime Investigation Police Department (PC49) - Hanoi City Police on November 13.

At around 2:00 a.m. on November 13, the reconnaissance force of Team 6 - Hanoi Environmental Crime Investigation Police Department coordinated with Market Management Team No. 11 (Hanoi) on duty near Yen Vien station (Yen Vien town, Gia Lam district, Hanoi) and discovered two large trucks docking with many suspicious signs.
