Border guards in the central province of Quang Tri Thursday said they caught two Lao men trying to cross into Vietnam with 4,300 tablets of a synthetic drug.
The tablets were found during body searches of Bun Voi, 67, and his son Bun Thui, 38, after they were caught illegally crossing the border on a motorbike Wednesday, according to the provincial Border Guards Headquarters.
The duo said they bought the drugs in Salavan Province and planned to sell them in Vietnam together with several locals.
They admitted they had been drug running for many years
