Chinese police have confiscated 659 kilogrammes of ketamine and arrested eight drug dealers, state media reported today.

Police in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of Hechi City also arrested eight drug dealers, while confiscating a vehicle and 200,000 yuan (USD 29,039) from drug transactions.

In September, police received a tip-off about several non-locals making drugs in a remote mountain village in Hechi.

Two months of investigation showed that a couple provided drug manufacturing sites, while other suspects supplied money and drug-producing techniques.

The final products were then sold in Hechi and neighbouring areas, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
