Poor Spelling Dooms Taiwanese Heroin Mule

Somewhere out there one of you cram school teachers failed your students....


When the officer picked up the dried fruit peels, it felt heavier than usual. Upon further examination, it was discovered that the translation of the product on the package was "Cnan" instead of "Chan." The female was taken into a room for interrogation. The officer asked her why she was bringing so many bags of dried fruit peels into Hong Kong, she said that she liked eating them. The officer opened up one bag and observed that the female became very nervous. When he opened up one of the wrapped dried fruit peels, he stripped away the paper wrappings and examined the contents carefully. The dried fruit peel was larger than normal. Upon peeling off the outer layer, he saw a white object instead of the usual seed. The 8-gram object was taken to the laboratory for testing and found to be pure Number Four heroin.
As ESWN pointed out, the case was cracked when the misspelling was noticed...
