Police in southern China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region have busted a drug ring operating across three cities that was allegedly run by a partially paralyzed woman, The Beijing News reported Wednesday.

The suspect, surnamed Wen, was apprehended Nov. 4 at her seven-story home — which also served as a shipment hub — after police from Xixiangtang District in Nanning, the region’s capital, tracked her down through a series of arrests made since March. According to The Beijing News, Wen has a 20-year history of drug use and is paralyzed from the waist down — so she would enlist fellow users to work for her and in exchange continue to feed their habits. Police have detained 11 suspects in connection with the case and seized over 2 kilograms of crystal meth, the report said.

Under Chinese law, drug trafficking is punishable by life in prison or even death. In June of last year, a livestreamer in the eastern Shandong province was accused of running a drug-trafficking operation from his channel on an unnamed video-hosting platform. (Image: @广西政法 on Weibo)
