2 arrested in large heroin bust in Thanh Hoa

VOV.VN - Two alleged drug dealers from Laos were arrested in Thanh Hoa Province on March 15 after authorities found 7 kilos of heroin in their possession with a street value of in excess of US$100,000. 

Nang Nu Mua, 36, and her husband Thao Chu Vang, 36, both Lao nationals were busted by Thanh Hoa border guards as they attempted to crossover the border into Vietnam.

Border guards say large quantities of synthetic drugs, cash, gold, jewellery and other related drug paraphilia were also seized in connection with the arrests.

The busts are significant, because they break down the complicated illicit trafficking system between Laos and Vietnam. 

Authorities say ultimately these two people contribute to the crime, death, and addiction that runs rampant in our communities.
