The ex-chief of the Fighting Drug Trafficking (FDT) Office of the Interior Ministry Touch Muysor has been detained over alleged illegal drug trafficking, according to an Interior Ministry official on Friday.

The source said that Touch Muysor was arrested last week.

The Interior Ministry's Director of the Department of Security Chai Syrith told DAP News Cambodia that "Touch Muysor will be sent to the Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Saturday. He was detained after members asked him to explain related to illegal drug trafficking."

There have been 7 accused persons arrested by the Department of Security after a crackdown on illegal drug trafficking.

The Interior Ministry removed Touch Muysor from his position after they found evidence to suggest illegal drug trafficking and arrested him. He will be sent for pre-trial court processing soon.
