The shipment was discovered inside a vehicle on the highway in the payment area, with the driver coming from one of the northern cities of the kingdom.
The suspect has been placed in custody following orders from the competent public prosecution to investigate the origin and routes of smuggling these pills and to identify any potential connections and extensions of the criminal network.
