KUNMING, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- Three suspects were caught and 24 kg of methamphetamine seized on Thursday in a drug trafficking case, police in southwest China's Yunnan Province announced on Friday.

One pistol, 50 bullets, and a vehicle were confiscated at the same time, said police in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture.

Yunnan is the main focal point of the national anti-drug campaign as it borders the Golden Triangle, known for drug production and trafficking.
