He was taken to concerned authorities and charged with pushing drugs. The patrolmen suspected the man near a garbage container, so they approached him and discovered a bag he dropped to ground, in which they found 12 bags of heroin, 13 bags of shabu and money. He was sent to drugs detectives. Separately, Kuwait International Airport customs officers found more than 2 kg of marijuana a passenger attempt to smuggle into the country.
