The Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority (ZATCA) at Al-Haditha customs port has successfully thwarted an attempt to smuggle 143,000 “Captagon" pills concealed in a truck coming to the Kingdom through the port.

“During screening and inspecting, those “Captagon" pills were seized in the bottom of a vehicle coming to Haditha Port" ZATCA said.

ZATCA spares no effort to tighten its grip over the Kingdom's imports and exports. The Authority vows ever to be vigilant against smuggling attempts to realize its goal of strengthening security and protecting society against these harmful substances and other contraband.

At the same time, the Authority has called on everyone to contribute to combating smuggling and protecting society and the national economy by reaching out to the Authority's number designated for security reports (1910), via e-mail at 1910@zatca.gov.sa or by the international number (00966114208417). Through these channels, the Authority receives and follows up on reports related to smuggling crimes and violations of the Common Customs Law in strict confidentiality, with a financial reward given to the whistleblower if the reported information is proven correct..
