Moroccan Police Seize 875 Kilos of Cannabis Resin in Major Drug Bust

An operation carried out yesterday by the judicial police brigade of the Zagora security district allowed the seizure of several hundred kilos of cannabis resin (chira), reports the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) in a press release.
According to the police, 875 kilograms of chira were seized on board a 4x4 vehicle bearing false license plates in the M’hamid El Ghizlane region, all divided into 35 packages of 25 kilograms each.
The investigation continues to identify the suspect or any suspects in this criminal activity, the DGSN specifies in this press release.
About twenty days ago, a customs brigade, assisted by elements of the Royal Gendarmerie, allowed the seizure of nearly 2 tons of drugs on board a car on the road connecting Tetouan to Chefchaouen. The drug cargo had been arranged in 53 packages and the vehicle transporting them bore falsified license plates.
