The Judiciary Police (PJ) arrested a man from Hong Kong on Wednesday for selling drugs in Macau, PJ spokesman Ho Chan Nam said during a special press conference at the PJ headquarters in Zape yesterday.
Ho identified the suspect as a 24-year-old chef surnamed Ng.
According to Ho, the police recently received a tip-off that a Hong Kong man had been hired by a drug-trafficking gang there to sell drugs in Macau. After investigating, PJ officers identified Ng as the suspect.
