US$150,000 reward offered for drug suspect wanted by Chinese police
Huge bounty matches reward collected by member of the public following arrest of another drug dealer last year
Police in southern China are offering a 1 million yuan (US$150,000) reward for information leading to the capture of a major drug suspect.
Cai Luoying, 29, is wanted in connection with several crimes including the manufacture and distribution of illegal substances.
The city police department in Lufeng, Guangdong province, publicised the large bounty via its official WeChat account on Monday.
The statement did not elaborate on the crimes Cai is suspected of committing.
But he has been wanted for questioning for more than a year. According to an October 2016 report by Guangzhou Daily, Cai – whose registered address is in a village in Lufeng – is one of the city’s 10 most-wanted drug suspects.
