Bid to smuggle 6,000kg hashish foiled
 [Pak Daily Times] The Customs authorities foiled an attempt to smuggle approximately 6,000kg hashish on Monday. "Ummm... Dewd? 6000kg is six tons. That's a lot of hash..." A Customs team headed by Deputy Collector Javed Sarwar Shaikh recovered the hashish concealed in 260 cartons in a 40-feet container no. MRKU 0423860, which was declared to contain cotton terry towels for Montreal, Canada. The R&D wing of the Pakistan Customs Computerised System (PaCCS) under the supervision of Additional Collector Tariq Huda was pursuing the case and focusing on both local and foreign elements involved. No arrests have been made so far while further investigation was underway. Posted by: Fred 2010-09-08 |
