NDLEA dismantles international drug syndicate, arrests 5 members, and seizes illicit drug consignments in Nigeria, South Africa, and Thailand.

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Nigeria has dismantled an international drug syndicate with networks in Nigeria, South Africa, and Thailand. In a two-week intelligence-led operation, five members of the syndicate were arrested, and multiple drug consignments were seized. The syndicate's cargo, including Loud, a synthetic strain of cannabis, and drug candies, was concealed in false bottoms of suitcases. NDLEA officers arrested additional suspects in different locations and intercepted a 40-ft gas tanker with cannabis hidden inside.
