Meth peddler’s career over before it began

Cops from Kratie’s Snuol district banged up a 20-year-old with an illicit Phnom Penh meth hookup on Wednesday.

After receiving a tipoff from an informant that a deal was about to go down, police pounced on the youngster, snuffing out his fledgling career as a meth merchant.

The suspect sang like a canary, confessing to his crime, and said he’d purchased his illicit inventory from a mysterious character in the capital.
