The trial of a man accused of smuggling 500 grams of heroin into Mongolia has been postponed. The trial of Ts.Ulaankhuu of Saikhan-Ovoo soum, Dundgobi aimag, was scheduled to begin on Tuesday. However, the state prosecutor and witnesses did not appear, so the trial has been postponed until August 25.

Ts.Ulaankhuu was arrested in May. He was charged under Article No. 192, which makes it illegal to produce, acquire, store, transport, transfer, or sell banned drugs like heroin.
