A 65-year-old individual was apprehended in Bab Sebta on Thursday for his alleged involvement in an attempted drug and psychotropic trafficking case.
The operation, carried out by elements of the National Security, in collaboration with customs agents operating at the Bab Sebta Center, led to the arrest of the suspect upon his arrival, aboard a 4x4 vehicle registered in Spain, according to the press release from the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN).
