Canadian citizen Kin Fai Chan and his associate Chun Fung Lo, of Hong Kong, admitted to the scheme in Federal Court in Sydney, Australia last week and were just sentenced. Lo got seven and a half years for playing a more limited role in the ring.The Australian charges stemmed from a B.C. investigation by the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit. Ye pleaded guilty to heading the drug ring last December and was sentenced in B.C. Supreme Court to 18 years.Chan and Lo were charged with attempting to possess 15 kilos of methamphetamine. The drugs had been manufactured in Canada and hidden in the linings of specially-modified suitcases. They were then shipped from Vancouver to Australia. CFSEU investigators alerted partners with the Australian Federal Police to the incoming shipment which led to the arrests of Chan and Lo.CFSEU Supt. Doug Kiloh said the guilty pleas down under show the extent to which law enforcement agencies work together internationally.“This is a good example of the excellent cooperation CFSEU continues to receive from our international policing partners and demonstrates the value of our efforts both locally and internationally,” Kiloh said.
