The content of the letter has been translated into English as follows:

In recent times, through its efforts in grasping the local situation and deploying synchronous professional measures, the Khanh Hoa Provincial Police Department promptly detected and arrested Omokeev Ulubek (born in 1978, Kyrgyzstani national), who has been wanted by INTERPOL for trafficking a large volume of narcotics, approximately 670 kg of Afghan heroin, concealed within candy and jam products.

Immediately after the arrest, the Khanh Hoa Provincial Police Department urgently verified the suspect’s criminal activities and closely coordinated with relevant under-ministerial professional units to hand over Omokeev Ulubek to the Kyrgyzstani competent authority in accordance with international practices.

This accomplishment vividly demonstrates the sharp professional expertise of the Vietnamese Public Security Forces, contributing to heightening their prestige and position in international cooperation on combating transnational crime.

On behalf of the Public Security Central Party Committee and the MPS leadership, Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung recognized and highly commended the achievement attained by the Khanh Hoa Provincial Police Department.

The Deputy Minister requested that the department’s leadership promptly commend and appropriately reward the units and officers who made outstanding contributions in detecting and arresting the especially dangerous international criminal.

He also urged the department to continue intensifying efforts to proactively fight and suppress crime and ensure security and order in the locality, contributing to safeguarding the peaceful and happy life of the people.

Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung wished the Khanh Hoa Provincial Police Department more success in fulfilling its missions in the time ahead.
