The Libyan Attorney General’s Office announced the seizure of over 8 million Pregabalin pills in a shipping container that arrived at the Port of Benghazi, on a cargo ship from India. The incident came to light following information provided by the judicial control officer assigned to the Customs Center, at Benghazi’s port.

Upon receiving the tip-off, investigators conducted a thorough inspection of the container in search of any illegal substances. This inspection led to the discovery of a substantial quantity of Pregabalin pills.

This seizure represents a significant effort by Libyan authorities to combat drug trafficking, and illegal substance abuse. The interception highlights the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement agencies in curbing the flow of illegal drugs into the country.

Days ago, the Investigations Office of Libya’s Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Control Agency announced the arrest of an individual involved in the import and trafficking of drugs, specifically hashish, in the city of Tobruk.

According to a statement, the suspect was apprehended after a carefully orchestrated sting operation. Authorities found the individual in possession of 350 kilograms of hashish.

The operation marks a significant victory for the Tobruk authorities, in their ongoing battle against drug trafficking. The Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Control Agency remains vigilant, using sophisticated surveillance and intelligence operations to dismantle networks and stem the flow of illegal narcotics into the region.

As the investigation continues, the agency affirms its commitment to safeguarding the community from the perils of drug abuse and trafficking. The successful operation sends a strong message to those involved in the illegal drug trade, highlighting the risks and consequences of their illicit activities.
