Two brothers – one a construction worker and the other fresh out of prison – were arrested for drug offences in Kandal province’s Sa’ang district.

District police were patrolling the usual haunts of drug abusers and dealers on Sunday evening when they came across the felonious family.

Asked to stop, the brothers fled, resulting in a chase, their arrest and a search turning up a bag of crystal meth.

They confessed to buying the meth in Phnom Penh, and had been travelling home.
