Lebanon arrests suspects in smuggling of Captagon to Saudi Arabia


The Saudi import ban drove down the price of local produce in Lebanon by as much as 40 per cent and cut farmers off from a source of scare dollars at a time of severe economic stress.
Saudi authorities said last week that they seized 5.3 million Captagon pills and 2.4 million amphetamine tablets hidden inside pomegranates imported from Lebanon.
The ban will remain until Lebanon provides adequate and reliable guarantees that it is taking action against drug traffickers, the Saudi Interior Ministry had said.
The Lebanese Army subsequently raided Captagon factories in the Bekaa Valley, an area controlled by the Iran-backed Hezbollah group. ....

Lebanon vows to punish drug smugglers as Saudi import ban bites


BEIRUT: Lebanon has vowed to punish drug smugglers after massive quantities of narcotics were intercepted and seized by Saudi Arabia and Greece. 
Saudi authorities on Friday reported foiling an attempt to smuggle millions of amphetamine pills stashed in a pomegranate shipment from Lebanon at Dammam’s King Abdulaziz Port. It said that five people involved in the case were arrested, four citizens and an expatriate. 
There was another interception of a pomegranate shipment, also from Lebanon and also containing drugs, in Jeddah.
Shortly after the Saudi statement, Greek authorities announced seizing four tons of cannabis hidden in dessert-making machinery at Piraeus that was en route from Lebanon to Slovakia. The value of the drugs was estimated to be around €33 million ($39 million). ....
