SHENZHEN, June 27 (Xinhua) -- A joint operation by the customs and police of China and the United States arrested three members of an organized drug gang, and seized 24.36 kilograms of ketamine, Shenzhen customs in south China's Guangdong Province announced Monday.

In August and September 2015, Shenzhen customs intercepted two packages bound for the United States. The parcels contained 2.9 kilograms and 5.92 kilograms of ketamine respectively.

Soon after, another ketamine package bound for the same destination was seized by Hong Kong customs.

The customs then contacted U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to catch the American-based suspect. In October, a Chinese woman was seized.

The drug gang had been moving drugs around Shenzhen and Huizhou cities in Guangdong and in Hong Kong.

Another two gang members were arrested separately in Huizhou in February and April.
