Hong Kong Customs and the Australian Border Force mounted a joint operation against drug trafficking by air mail between the two places from October 15 to 28.
During the operation, a total of 18 cases of trafficking drugs from Hong Kong to Australia were detected with a seizure of about 26 kilograms of suspected gamma-butyrolactone and about 4kg of suspected Part 1 poisons. The estimated market value of the seizure is about HK$500,000.
Hong Kong Customs will continue to step up co-operation with overseas law enforcement agencies through intelligence exchange and joint operations to combat international drug trafficking activities.
