A 50-year-old Australian tourist was arrested yesterday and sent to Preah Sihanouk Provincial Court for questioning after being accused of selling a 40-gram package of crystal methamphetamine to an undercover police officer.

 

Provincial anti-drug police officer Chum Sokunthy said Rossetto Dino was detained in Sihanoukville. “The suspect was an active drug distributor who often brought drugs for sale to foreign tourists at nightclubs and beaches in Preah Sihanouk province,” Mr Sokunthy said.

 

“He was arrested when he brought a package of drugs to our undercover police officer code-named B4.” After his arrest, police seized the drugs and other related materials from him. A urine test proved positive for drugs.
