News summary

Hong Kong police have conducted a significant raid on a Pokémon Trading Card Game store, uncovering 21 kilograms of methamphetamine valued at approximately $1.3 million USD. The operation began when authorities found a 28-year-old man outside the store with 5 kilograms of the drug, leading to a search that revealed an additional 16 kilograms hidden in a staff-only area. Inspector Liong Chun-Hin condemned the storage of such a large quantity of narcotics in a place frequented by children and teenagers, although he confirmed that none were involved in the drug trafficking. The investigation suggests that the store may have served as a front for a larger drug trafficking operation for over a month. This incident highlights the troubling intersection of criminal activity and popular family-friendly franchises, as similar cases have emerged in the past. Police have arrested the suspect on charges related to trafficking in dangerous drugs.
