Syria’s Ministry of the Interior announced another Captagon drug bust Monday.
The ministry said in a statement that it seized 24 kilograms (53 pounds) of Captagon after receiving a tip and arresting the alleged drug dealer. The substance was apparently molded into the form of pottery plates under a brown coating.
