Xinhua,April 21, 2018 Adjust font size:

CHONGQING, April 21 (Xinhua) -- Police in southwest China's Chongqing Municipality have detained six suspects and seized 521.5 kg of methamphetamine, according to the local public security department.

In July 2017, an ex-con surnamed Wang caught the attention of local police when he was involved in a drug-dealing case. Investigations showed that Wang had been producing methamphetamine and had other drug dealers selling the drugs in Chongqing and Sichuan Province.

On Nov. 1, 2017, police raided a meth lab in Dianjiang County, Chongqing. They detained the six suspects and confiscated drug making equipment and four vehicles.

Other details of the case were not disclosed until Friday.

The case is under further investigation. Enditem
