5.7 Million Contraband Pills Seized By Kuwait Customs Department
The officials of the General Administration of Customs continue to fight the smuggling of drug pills and contraband into the country, reports Al-Rai daily.
The daily added, after the failed attempt to smuggle 10 million Tramadol pills into the country a few days ago, they inspectors have foiled another similar attempt – this time to smuggle about six million packets of tobacco in two, 40 and 20 feet containers, which allegedly came from an unidentified Gulf state.
A member of the Customs Information Committee said: “The customs officers at the Shuwaikh port suspected the two containers which arrived months ago and remained at the customs warehouses. The importing company tried to re-export the contents of the containers following which it was subjected for inspection and the inspectors found 5.7 million packets registered as derivatives of tobacco inside the containers.
