HONG KONG - Hong Kong Customs announced Wednesday that they seized about 2 kilograms of suspected ketamine, with a market value of about HK$260,000, at the Lo Wu Control Point on Tuesday.
Customs officers intercepted a 19-year-old incoming female passenger at the Lo Wu Control Point Tuesday night and found the suspected drugs inside her shoulder bag.
