Police say three foreigners have been arrested in Cambodia for trying to smuggle 750 grammes of drugs out of the country.

A Briton, a Pakistani and a Taiwanese-American were arrested at midnight Friday in a hotel room.

Police say they were discovered with 450 grammes of crystal amphetamines, known as "ice", and 300 grammes of a white powder used to produce the drug.

Police say they'd been monitoring them for almost three months and are still trying to discover where they were smuggling the drugs.

The three men are being detained while they await trial.
