(HBO) – As the main anti-drug force of Hoa Binh city, the Drug Crime Investigation Police Office, which gathers many young officers, has eased the "heat” of drug, reducing its spread in the community. The most outstanding example of the force is Lieutenant Colonel Bui Van Anh (in photo), who has made excellent feats of arms.


All 15 wards and communes of Hoa Binh city have drug addicts and crimes, with about 600 drug addicts reported in the city each year.

Given this, Lieut. Gen. Hung, head of the unit, and his colleagues have learnt about the number of drug addicts and utilised community strength in drug combat. He has given consultations to local Party Committees and authorities in popularising drug-related laws and building models of drug addict management and education in the community. The officer has also partnered with the city’s culture and information division to organise mobile talks and launch hundreds of anti-drug slogans. Such mass organisations as the youth union, women’s association and fatherland front have also encouraged their members to commit not to getting involved in social bad deeds and drug crime, while engaging in building cultural families and cultural residential areas. Such efforts aim to expand the combat against crimes, especially those related to drug, in the society. As a result, the number of drug addicts in the locality dropped from 672 in 2013 to 550 at present. More than 309 drug addicts have been sent to rehabilitation centres.

Over the past five years, Hung and his colleagues busted 32 drug rings and 308 cases, seizing 42 people involved together with tens of heroin bricks and thousands of meth pills.

With the outstanding achievements, Hung has been honoured as a role model in emulation movements, and received certificates of merit by the Ministry of Public Security and the Director of Hoa Binh province’s Police Department.

The provincial Police Department also presented the officer with the title of the role model in the campaign encouraging police officers to follow Uncle Ho’s teachings during the 2013-2018 period./.
