The customs officials had stopped the shipment last Friday at the Tan Son Nhat International airport. Airport customs officers, in conjunction with the Ministry of Public Security’s General Economic Security Department and other units, launched an investigation, which revealed that the gun had the code "SG", and as cited by some local media, the gun may be headed to Singapore as it is believed that some officials still make the mistake of sending packages with "SG" to Ho Chi Minh, which used to be Saigon "SG".
