Drug smuggling on rise
KUWAIT CITY, Sept 5: Kuwait in the recent days has witnessed a rise in drug trafficking from Pakistan and authorities have arrested many people after recovering heroin and hashish from their possession.
Smugglers from Pakistan in the recent days started swallowing heroin capsules to smuggle them. Customs authorities here arrested four Pakistanis during the last month and found 4kg of heroin in their stomachs.
