Four Omanis held for smuggling 150kg of hashish

The Directorate of Narcotics Control in Oman foiled an attempt to smuggle a large quantity of hashish in Oman through sea route and arrested four citizens, according to a press release by the Royal Oman Police (ROP) Saturday.
"We have intensified our campaign against drug smuggling and its usage in recent times," said a spokesperson for the Directorate of Narcotics Control.
During one of the several raids in Muscat, the officers were tipped off that a group of Omanis had joined hands with Iranian nationals to smuggle a large quantity of hashish from the sea route.
Before the hashish could be smuggled in, police raided the group at sea in Seeb area of Muscat and arrested the accused gang of four drug smugglers.
The police confiscated 150kg of hashish and a boat used to smuggle the drugs, according to the press release.
