Dubai Police Conduct Major Drug Bust Worth $8.7 Million
Dubai police conducted a major drug raid and arrested 28 people of different nationalities for their involvement in 3 different drug trafficking rings. The gangs planned to sell 111 kg of drugs worth AED 32 million (USD 8.7 million).
Drugs seized included 99 kg of Captagon tablets worth more than AED 31 million, as well as 12 kg of methamphetamine, heroin, and cannabis.
Dubai Police have shown their commitment to maintaining the city’s reputation as a safe place for residents and visitors. Authorities have insisted that drug trafficking will not be tolerated and that those found guilty will face the full wrath of the law.
The Dubai police had previously warned of the dangers of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. In a video statement, police dubbed CO a “silent killer” due to his colorless and odorless nature, making his pursuit difficult.
CO is mainly emitted from cars, small engines, stoves, fireplaces, and other devices. If it accumulates indoors, it can be extremely dangerous and can cause death.
To prevent CO poisoning, people are advised to provide adequate ventilation in enclosed spaces, use locally approved heating and cooling equipment, and install a CO detector in their homes.
