Searches carried out in a warehouse in the industrial zone of Aït Melloul near Agadir led to the seizure of 4.9 additional tons of drug intended for international trafficking, carefully packed in metal tanks carried by trucks parked in one of the industrial units, said a press release from the National Police (DGSN), adding that the total quantity of the drugs seized since the dismantling of this international drug trafficking network thus amounts to 13 tonnes and 802 kilograms.
