Patient police arrest duo for slinging meth

PERSISTENCE paid off for police in Koh Thom district on Sunday when they caught a pair of men – a farmer, 21, and a construction worker, 24 – with illicit drugs. District police had previously received a tip that the pair had been selling drugs, but didn’t find any evidence to arrest them. Rather than give up, they put an informant on their tail, who gave the police the heads up when to have another go. This time, they found the duo with four bags of meth and took them to the police station.
