More pseudoephedrine pills from across the ocean
A cargo of what was suspected to be pseudo-ephedrine tablets was seized by Customs officials at the Phillip Goldson International Airport on Tuesday. The shipment which originated from Dubai was sent to Belize via DHL to the Belize General Farm Suppliers. While there had not been any major busts recently, two of five packages intercepted were believed to contain the chemical agents used in the manufacturing of crystal methamphetamine. Preliminary tests, however, have indicated that the capsules include ibuprofen, a pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory drug. Confirmation of the content of both parcels is expected by Friday when testing is scheduled to be completed. Our research on the company came up empty.
Methamphetamine is a powerful, highly addictive stimulant drug that
Dramatically affects the central nervous system. Like home made boms and silencers this drug can easily be bought in drug stores and produce right in your kitchen, you think crack or crimes are bad, just wait for the new drug to hit the streets.
Perhaps the police should have set up a sting to catch the people operating this new business in Belize, someone sent the package from Dubai to someone in Belize, so someone was expected to pick up the package.
The address could have been faked, perhaps coming from Mexico where Most of the
Larger labs are controlled by Mexican
Drug Trafficking Organizations.
I question the delay in destroying these drugs before they are on the streets.
