KUNMING, May 18 (Xinhua) -- Police in southwest China's Yunnan Province have caught one suspect and seized 47.446 kilograms of drugs, local police said Friday.
Earlier this month, police in Dehong prefecture received information that someone was planning to transport a large amount of drugs across the border into China.
On May 11, police caught a man allegedly carrying over 45 kilograms of opium and more than two kilograms of methamphetamine on a motorcycle in the city of Ruili.
The case is under further investigation.
Yunnan is a major front in China's battle against drug crime, as it borders the Golden Triangle known for its rampant drug production and trafficking.
