Police in Hanoi’s Ha Dong District yesterday caught a taxi of the Noi Bai Taxi Company carrying about 200 kg of rotten and stinking animal organs. At 12:45 pm on Thursday, police stopped the suspicious cab for examination when it was running on Road 70 after leaving Noi Bai Airport. The police found five cartons containing rotten animal tripe, liver and heart and each carton was glued with a control stamp of Vietnam Airlines on which the flight number was shown.  The taxi driver, Le An Ninh, 35, a resident in Hanoi’s Soc Son District, failed to show any documents about the origin of the goods. Ninh just said that he had been hired by a woman to transport them from the airport to Van Phuc Ward in Ha Dong for VND400,000 (US$19.2). Police made a report on their finding and seized all the goods. Talking with Tuoi Tre, Trinh Ba Quang, head of the Market Management Team No. 26, said, “The animal organs had been transported to Hanoi from HCMC by air for sale.”
