The stimulant is widely sold and used in the Middle East, creating a market worth billions of dollars.
Saudi authorities said today that they thwarted more attempts to smuggle millions of Captagon pills into the country.
The Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority said in a press release it found 2,060,000 pills of the drug hidden in boxes of gloves at the Jeddah port and an additional 423,926 pills in a shipment marked as oranges at the Duba port. Both ports are located on the Red Sea.
