Detectives in Kenya have linked a 3.6 billion shilling methamphetamine seizure in Kwale to Pakistan, according to local media. The operation uncovered 454 kilograms of suspected meth, believed to be destined for East Africa and South Africa. Three suspects, including two foreign nationals, were arrested during the raid.
The drugs were discovered in a hidden compartment of a vehicle near the coastal town of Kwale. Authorities stated the shipment was intended for regional markets, highlighting concerns over cross-border drug trafficking. The suspects are currently under investigation for drug trafficking charges.
This seizure marks one of the largest in recent years, underscoring ongoing challenges in combating narcotics in the region. Previous operations have targeted smuggling routes through the Indian Ocean, with Pakistan often cited as a key transit point. The case adds to growing pressure on law enforcement to strengthen border controls and international cooperation.
