On July 8, during the inspection of the shipment from Germany to Noi Bai International Airport, the authorities determined that out of a total of 240kg, there were 15 packages, including 1 foam box containing baby milk powder, 14 cartons containing candle boxes which all had drugs hidden inside.
At about 4:00 p.m. on July 9, when Nguyen Van Duc (born in 1994, residing in Vinh Tuong district, Vinh Phuc) came to receive the above shipment, the working group asked the subject to open it for inspection and discovered 34kg of the synthetic drug MDMA hidden in porcelain candle cups.
At the investigation agency, Nguyen Van Duc confessed to the crime. Hanoi City Police ordered the arrest of emergency for Nguyen Van Duc for drug trafficking.
The case is under expanded investigation.
