The Customs and Excise Department arrested one man and one woman after authorities seized a large amount of suspected etomidate and cocaine during an anti-narcotics operation in Tin Shui Wai. The total estimated market value of the seized drugs was about 10 million dollars.
The department conducted the operation and arrests made on Wednesday. In the process, authorities intercepted a 35-year-old man, who carried a paper bag that contained 50 suspected etomidate capsules.
The man was arrested immediately and was brought to a nearby premise for a search, where authorities seized more drugs, including 267 suspected etomidate capsules, 1.75 kilograms of suspected etomidate powder and 1.2 kilograms of suspected cocaine.
A 26-year-old woman was also arrested on the site. The two are charged with the manufacturing of a dangerous drug and trafficking in a dangerous drug.
