KUWAIT: Customs inspectors recently managed to foil three attempts to smuggle drugs into Kuwait through Kuwait International Airport's Terminal 4 (T4), said security sources. The first suspect, a GCC national who arrived form the US, was arrested with possession of marijuana kept in a glass container. The second suspect, an Arab man, arrived from an Asian country with a similar container, while the third suspect, an Asian man, arrived from an Asian country other than his home country with the possession of amphetamines and marijuana hidden in paper packs. Meanwhile, custom inspectors at Terminal 5 (T5) also managed to arrest an Asian man who arrived from his home country with the possession of 250 grams of hashish. The drugs were confiscated and the four suspects were referred to relevant authorities pending further legal actions.
