YANGON, Nov. 8 (Xinhua) -- Myanmar police seized 610,000 stimulant tablets in eastern Myanmar's Shan state, according to the Central Committee for Drug Abuse Control (CCDAC) late Thursday.
Acting on a tip-off, a joint anti-narcotic task force intercepted a vehicle in the state's Yatsauk township on Nov. 4 and confiscated the drugs along with three mobile phones.
The seized drugs had a street value of 305 million kyats (about 145,238 U.S. dollars). Two suspects were arrested.
The suspects were charged under the Southeast Asian country's Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Law, and further investigations were underway, the CCDAC said. ■
