Adjust font size:

Police in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region seized nearly 1,400 kg of drugs and arrested five suspected drug traffickers in early November, sources said Sunday.

The police in Bayannaoer City, western Inner Mongolia, had been tracking a gang making, selling and trafficking drugs since June this year during a major anti-drug smuggling campaign. The gang was smashed on Nov. 8.

The police caught five suspects while there were conducting drug dealing in Baotou City, a neighboring city of Bayannaoer, seizing 1,125 kg of caffeine, 246 kg sodium-benzoate powder and tablets, and five kg of poppyseed.

An investigation into the case is underway.
