Accident – Death – Obituary News :
On the 25th of May 2024, a 47-year-old man named Mr. Lo was detained at the airport after authorities discovered approximately 18.3 kilograms of cannabis buds in his luggage. The seized drugs are estimated to have a street value of £3.07 million.
The apprehension occurred during a joint operation conducted by officers from the New Territories North regional anti-triad unit and customs officials. The collaboration was based on intelligence analysis and extensive investigation.
Law enforcement officials suspect that Mr. Lo was lured by a drug trafficking syndicate, enticed by the promise of quick financial gain, to smuggle the illegal substances into Hong Kong from overseas. The interception of 21 packets of cannabis buds is considered a significant setback to the syndicate’s operations.
Authorities have issued a stern warning, underscoring the severity of drug trafficking as a serious criminal offence. They highlighted the common tactic employed by criminal syndicates, who exploit individuals’ financial aspirations by enticing them through social media platforms with promises of easy money.
