Riyadh – Saudi customs officials discovered 413,450 amphetamine tablets concealed within a consignment of canned fava beans destined for the Kingdom from Jordan via the Al‑Haditha land crossing, according to the Saudi Press Agency.
Hamoud Al‑Harbi, a spokesperson for the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority, stated that the drugs were identified during a routine inspection of a truck at the northern border crossing.
The authority continues to coordinate with the Ministry of Interior and the General Directorate of Narcotics Control to strengthen customs controls at land, sea, and air ports and to combat drug smuggling.
Al‑Harbi urged citizens to report any suspected smuggling activities by calling the authority’s hotline at 1910 or emailing [email protected]. All reports are handled confidentially, and verified tips may qualify for financial rewards.
