An attempt to smuggle more than 144 grams of drugs into Oman through the UAE on a truck was foiled by Abu Dhabi Customs officers in Haili Customs Center near Al Ain.
The 144,56 grams of drugs were concealed in 4 balloons inside shoes and in plastic bags under the front seats of the truck which was driven by a national of an Arab country.
The driver and the seized drugs were referred to the relevant authorities.
The successful effort by Abu Dhabi Customs was hailed by Hamad Al Hur Al Suwaidi, Chairman of Abu Dhabi's Department of Finance as the fruit of the support extended by the country's top leadership and giving world-class training to the Customs' human resources.
