Inspectors of the CNMI Division of Customs intercepted last May 2, 2022, a large amount of crystalline substance concealed inside a package. Inspectors tested the crystalline substance and it yielded a presumptive positive result for methamphetamine and weighed approximately 997.4 gross grams. The CNMI Drug Enforcement Task Force was immediately notified.<\/p>\n
The package was claimed by an unknown female who was later apprehended. This investigation led to an additional two arrests, where a search warrant was also executed that same afternoon. A large undetermined amount of drugs (methamphetamine) and money were discovered and seized by authorities.<\/p>\n
This case has been forwarded to the court.<\/p>\n
In all, the CNMI Drug Enforcement Task Force arrested three individuals and executed one search warrant.<\/p>\n
Through the course of this operation, authorities arrested 40-year-old Huaishu Wang, 55-year-old Yongbing Ni, and 48-year-old Hong Jie Li.<\/p>\n
