SHIJIAZHUANG, Oct. 2 (Xinhua) -- Five drug dealers and five drug users have been seized by police along with 21 kg of methamphetamine in north China's Hebei Province.

A task force was set up in December after the police in the city of Langfang received a report of suspected drug dealing.

An investigation found that the suspects purchased drugs in southwest China's Yunnan Province and drove a minivan to Myanmar for modification, before hiring someone to drive the modified vehicle back to Hebei with the drugs.

The minivan was seized on May 5 as it entered Hebei on a highway. The police found 41 bags of methamphetamine weighing 21 kg in the chassis.

Further investigation is underway.
