Saudi Arabia’s General Directorate of Narcotics Control arrested two Yemeni residents in Jeddah governorate for promoting narcotic substances.[1] Officers arrested a Moroccan woman visitor in the same Jeddah operation on the same promotion allegation.[1] The three suspects were detained and had the regulatory procedures taken against them.[1] They were then referred to the Public Prosecution.[1]

The seizure in the case included 1.9 kilograms of hashish, the cannabis component recorded here.[1] The same seizure also included cocaine.[1] It also included methamphetamine, which the directorate parenthetically identified as shabu.[1] It also included tablets subject to medical circulation controls.[1] No separate weight or count was published for the cocaine, methamphetamine or tablets, so only the hashish weight is recorded as cannabis.[1]

Jeddah governorate is the named place of both the arrests and the seizure.[1] The directorate that made the arrests is Saudi Arabia’s anti-narcotics enforcement agency.[1] The three suspects were processed together as one promotion case.[1] The alleged conduct in the case was promotion of narcotic substances.[1]
