migrant living in Italy who was with his wife, to question both after drugs
described as a significant quantity of hard drugs alongside hashish were found
in their possession.[1]The intervention took place late on Friday night in
the Sidi Boujida neighbourhood in the Jnan El Ward district.[1]Police seized
the car in which the drugs were found and took the man and his wife to the
security wilaya headquarters for questioning.[1]
Searching the car enabled the seizure of nearly 200 grams of cocaine and more
than 8 kilograms of chira in slab form.[1]Chira is cannabis resin, so this
report records only the 8 kilograms of chira as cannabis and excludes the
cocaine.[1]

in police custody for further investigation of the case.[1]
