Crime | Gongbei arrested Nigerian with 30 kilograms of marijuana

The Gongbei customs authority arrested a Nigerian man, who is suspected of being a drug dealer responsible for mailing 30 kilograms of marijuana to Zhongshan in Guangdong province.

Another Nigerian suspect is on the run. According to the Gongbei customs authority, the two suspects shipped the drugs to a Wechat contact of theirs, a woman on the mainland. However, the woman was reportedly not informed on the contents of the packages, and she assisted the customs authority in arresting one of the suspects.

The Gongbei customs authority noted that recently, drug dealers have been altering their way of dispersing drugs by resorting to shipping.

Marijuana is still the most smuggled drug. Most drugs are from Canada, the U.S. and Kenya.

Drug dealers frequently date or offer high payouts to mainland residents in order to cover up their crimes.
