NNA said that the ISF found the pills after searching the traveler’s bag, who was identified as A.M.
The pills were concealed in glass tubes.
The suspect was trying to smuggle the drugs to Cairo.
Upon the request of Mount Lebanon’s general prosecutor, the suspect was transferred to the drug control office for further questioning, NNA added.
