It is known that five people per day were arrested in local public security, including two Koreans trying to smuggle 40kg of drugs into container cargo and smuggled to Incheon.

According to local media, the Vietnamese police searched the interior of a 20-foot container scheduled to be shipped on a cargo ship to Incheon from Cho Lai Port in Ho Chi Minh City on the 19th and seized 40 kg of methamphetamine.

It is said that the methamphetamine was hidden in a groove made between layers of granite.

The public security officials are arresting and investigating five related persons, including two Koreans, two Chinese and one Vietnamese, including Kim Mo, who is 60 years old.

According to the initial investigation, Kim said that Kim, who served as a police officer in Korea for 20 years, was identified as the main culprit.

If you smuggle more than 600 g of heroin or 2.5 kg of methamphetamine under the Vietnamese Penal Code, you will be sentenced to death.
