The Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority at the Islamic port of Jeddah successfully foiled an attempt to smuggle 46.8 kilograms of cocaine into the Kingdom. The drugs were discovered hidden in a shipment coming through the port.

The Authority explained that the shipment, labeled as “frozen chicken,” underwent customs procedures and security checks, during which the cocaine was found concealed in the shipment’s refrigeration unit.
