إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Customs officers at the Rafik Hariri International Airport on Sunday foiled an attempt to smuggle 12 kilograms of cocaine into the country from Nigeria's Kano.

“The quantity was packed in a professional and creative way and was seized in the possession of a man who arrived from Kano,” one of the largest cities in Nigeria, Lebanon's National News Agency reported.

“The man was arrested following authorization from the relevant judicial authorities,” NNA said.

He was referred to the central anti-drug bureau for further interrogation, the agency added.

How much money is that, that Hizballah doesn't get ?

Well, assuming a $30/gram, that's $360,000,000, almost as much as Fattoush's reparations of 400mill for his quarry (though I think he's requesting something in the billions now). Anyway.

lol do you realize your baseless accusations only harm your own credibility and expose the slandering campaign against hezbollah?

Do not assume his arrest means HA does not get them.
I think he is arrested by HA agents and the cocaine will go straight to HA warehouses for distribution and marketing.
Remember they are the stronger of the two states in Lebanon.

if you do the math $30 x 12000 grams is $360K not $360M.

a few zeros makes a difference......

I would love to know where you got these facts from evn though this article does not state who it was for and who brought so before you accuse anybody of anything make sure you have the facts to back it up. blind hatred and anger is not evidence

Ah, kgs not tons.

I don't think supposed drug-empires deal in Kgs.

Of course they need to stop the drugs from coming in. Why would HZB allow competitors? Monopoly of the market brings in more revenue.

Haha, I can imagine hiding 12kgs in a creative way. I cannot imagine hiding 12 tons in a creative way.
