Police in China's Yunnan Province have detained two suspects for trafficking around 12.7 kg of heroin, local authorities said. On June 30, Changning County police received a tip that two drug dealers were planning to transport drugs from Gengma County into Kunming, capital of Yunnan. A task force was immediately set up to investigate the case. Police arrested two suspects on July 1 in Gengma and seized 32 bricks of heroin from their vehicle. Further investigation is underway. Yunnan is a major front in China's war on drugs, as it borders the Golden Triangle known for drug production and trafficking. A total of 5,648 suspects have been arrested and more than 11 tonnes of drugs have been seized by police in Yunnan between January and May. |
