1,400 kg of Laos-imported marijuana with drying and packing machines seized in Phnom Penh
National Police anti-drug department raided a property in Phnom Penh's Russey Keo district, arresting three suspects and seizing 79 packages totaling over 1,400 kg of dried marijuana, plus drying machines and packing devices. Anti-Drug Department director Khiev Samon identified the mastermind as "Dara" and stated police experts determined "this dried marijuana was not planted in Cambodia; it is imported from Laos and stockpiled at this location to export and distribute locally." The machines were used "to hide the smell so the suspects could evade discovery." H1 2015 national statistics: 1,959 suspects arrested in 998 drug cases, a 156% increase over H1 2014. The article also references a recent 171-plant bust in Kampong Speu and the ~8,000-plant Pursat sesame farm bust.
