Drugs in home appliances

Saudi port customs inspectors seized more than 1.5 million captagon pills hidden inside a shipment presumed to be containing only home appliances.

The inspectors at the Western Red Sea port of Duba near the border with Jordan decided to search the shipment aboard a truck after suspecting it contains illegal items.

“They found around 1.57 million captagon pills inside the shipment which was sent to Saudi Arabia from another country,” Sada daily said.
