The Finance Ministry said Wednesday that customs authorities at Beirut’s airport have thwarted one of the biggest drug smuggling operations in Lebanon after seizing 31 kilograms of cocaine.
The ministry said that customs officers found the cocaine hidden in the bags of a Lebanese man who had arrived to Rafik Hariri International Airport from Brazil via Abu Dhabi.
The cocaine was placed in 29 packs in two bags, it said.
The suspect who was identified by his initials as A.J. was arrested and the drugs were seized and handed over to the anti-drug unit, the ministry’s statement added.
