Kratie dealer’s ambition proves to be his undoing

A meth dealer had his operation blown open in Kratie province’s Snuol district on Sunday, after his underground trade grew so big it spilled into plain sight.

Villagers noticed the illicit operation growing bigger by the day, and so alerted police to nip this noxious narcotic dealing in the bud.

In the resulting raid on his lodgings, police discovered four bags of meth, scales and other paraphernalia, and also arrested the perp, who is now being questioned.
