Moroccan customs officers, assisted by a police dog unit, successfully thwarted a drug smuggling operation on Saturday at the Bab Sebta border crossing. The officers seized 67 kilograms of hashish concealed in a vehicle that was attempting to cross into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta.
A customs source told Hespress that the drugs were hidden in the car’s fuel tank, which was driven by a Moroccan national. The vehicle was stopped at the departure area of the crossing, and after a thorough search, the drugs were discovered.
The driver of the car was arrested and handed over to the police for further investigation. The hashish and the vehicle have been seized by customs authorities for further examination under the supervision of the public prosecutor’s office.
This seizure marks another successful operation in Morocco’s ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking, particularly at its border crossings with Spanish territories.
