Two sex workers allegedly doubling as drug runners were arrested early yesterday for selling dope in the capital’s Daun Penh district.

Police said they were tipped off about a possible syndicate operating near Sorya Mall.

After an investigation, police arrested two sex workers, aged 27 and 28, following a drug transaction.

They had three packages of yama and paraphernalia on their person. Law enforcement is looking into a possible network.
