Customs and police personnel stationed at the Bab Sebta crossing point successfully intercepted an attempted drug trafficking operation on Friday, seizing a substantial 39 kilograms of hashish, as reported by a customs official. In a coordinated enforcement effort, customs officers at the export terminal, working alongside police and a canine unit, discovered the drugs meticulously concealed as bricks within a specially constructed compartment hidden along the floor of a vehicle registered in Germany. The vehicle was driven by a Moroccan expatriate holding a Dutch passport, who was reportedly preparing to exit the national territory, according to the same source. Following the operation, authorities confiscated both the vehicle and the illicit substances. The driver of the vehicle was promptly handed over to police custody for further interrogation into the case, under the oversight of the relevant prosecutor's office.
