The Chinese and Cambodian police jointly cracked a large-scale cross-border drug trafficking case, arresting 49 suspects and seizing 350 kg of methamphetamine. This was reported by The Xinhua News Agency.

According to an announcement by the public security department of south China's Guangdong Province, the Guangzhou police noticed a cross-border drug trafficking gang in October 2020. An investigation found that the gang planned to operate in many places in China and Cambodia.

On Dec. 24, 2021, police in both China and Cambodia conducted a simultaneous operation. Five gang principals and 15 other people involved as well as 350 kg of methamphetamine were nabbed in a villa and local casino in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, while another 29 suspects were arrested in multiple Chinese cities.
