Kuwait Authorities Seize 85 Kilograms of Shabu Worth 1 Million Dinars, Thwart Major Drug Network

Security authorities in Kuwait dealt a major blow to drug trafficking networks this week. The General Department for Combating Narcotics seized 85 kilograms of the narcotic substance Shabu, valued at approximately one million Kuwaiti dinars, in the possession of an Asian national reportedly working for an international network. The individual was receiving instructions from abroad to distribute these dangerous substances within Kuwait.

This operation reflects the Ministry of Interior’s ongoing commitment to protecting society from the harm caused by drugs. It serves as a strong warning to anyone attempting to smuggle or promote narcotics in Kuwait: law enforcement remains vigilant and ready to dismantle such networks. The suspect and the seized narcotics have been handed over to the appropriate authorities to pursue all necessary legal actions.

The Ministry of Interior reiterates its firm stance on enforcing the law rigorously to ensure the safety and security of the nation. The Ministry urges all citizens and residents to assist security personnel by reporting any suspicious activities via the emergency number (112) or the General Department for Combating Narcotics’ hotline at (1884141).
