The General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) indicates that its services spotted a goods transport vehicle, which would be used for the trafficking of chira, in the town of Béni Nsar. This vehicle was abandoned by the driver near the industrial zone.

The investigations carried out made it possible to note that the license plates of the vehicle are falsified. They also made it possible to find "47 packages of chira, estimated at one ton and 486 kilograms, as well as two electronic devices and a sum of 20 million centimes suspected of being the proceeds of drug and psychotropic trafficking".

According to the DGSN, the judicial police brigade of Nador has opened an investigation to determine the circumstances of this case, and to put out of harm’s way all the people involved in these criminal acts.
