Customs officers at the Haditha border crossing in Qurayat foiled an attempt to smuggle nearly one-and-a-half million Captagon pills

Customs officers at the Haditha border crossing in Qurayat foiled an attempt to smuggle nearly one-and-a-half million Captagon pills into the country during the Eid Al-Fitr holidays. Zayed bin Atallah Al-Zayed, the director of Haditha Customs, said the crossing point witnessed heavy traffic during the holidays with more than 35,000 vehicles carrying about 110,000 passengers leaving the Kingdom and 38,000 vehicles with some 150,000 passengers arriving from neighboring countries.
“Our officers deployed in full force to meet the pressure, which is normal this time of the year. We also managed to inspect all cargo trucks and passenger baggage without causing any disruption in the traffic movement,” said Al-Zayed.
