Police foil drug duo in Battambang meth sting

Two Battambang province meth dealers had their operation busted wide open by the police on Monday evening.

National police reported that the pair were found well stocked for their imminent distribution, and may have also been guilty of getting high on their own supply.

The dirty duo were found with nearly six grams of methamphetamine, two battered mobile phones, bags for dispensing their wares into, and other paraphernalia for their own drug use.
