Marijuana plants found inside a house in Hawally where a drug dealer who was arrested yesterday planted them for trade

KUWAIT: An expat was arrested in Hawally for planting marijuana in his house and selling it. Security sources said the suspect told narcotics police that he imported the seedlings and planted them. Further investigations are in progress to find out whether the suspect has any accomplices.

Crackdown

Hawally municipality inspection teams conducted a wide-scale campaign on open yards outside mosques to clear them before Ramadan. Twenty cleaners, four trucks, a loader, a forklift and a lorry were used in the campaign that resulted in removing 10 abandoned vehicles, filing six road blockage citations and removing a truck and a half load of waste.
