Customs officers at Dubai International Airport seized about six kilograms of marijuana, which a passenger from an African nation tried to smuggle into the country.
Ibrahim Al Kamali, Director of Passenger Operations Department at Dubai Customs, pointed out that Dubai Customs successfully detected a qualitative amount of narcotic after the officers suspected something odd about a passenger's bag while it was passing through the X-ray machine.
During a manual inspection, six packages of peanut butter were recovered stuffed with marijuana weighing 5.95 kilograms.
Al Kamali added that Dubai Customs at Dubai Airports contributes to the application of the highest levels of efficiency in carrying out tasks to protect society. The system is based on qualified human cadres and smart monitoring systems. It also uses artificial intelligence and modern technologies, supported by advanced devices during the inspection.
