This latest seizure netted over 10 million Captagon pills with a street value of KD25 million. If the whole population is 3.3 million, that means this one haul was large enough to give every single person in Kuwait 3 pills. How popular is this drug in Kuwait? [YouTube]
Thanks Gravity

current population is almost 4.2 millions (4.108-4.110)
Most of these 4.2 million are poor labor. So if we divide the 10 million pills over the well off population that’s aged over 14 years old. We conclude that this seizure is too huge for Kuwait.
Some of it was meant for the Kuwait. The rest might be headed for other countries.
I just want to know whose job it was to get an accurate count.
That’s a good question, I don’t think they count every pill instead they weight the whole shipment and then they divide it over the weight of single pill.
Truly an American girl. haha jk
Captagon is drug that is used heavily by terrorists like ISIS to fight.

It’s highly likely it was headed for Iraq. This means someone is facilitating supply of these in Kuwait.
I doubt this was meant for Iraq, Captagon is produced in Syria which borders Iraq so it would have been much easier to just send it to Iraq then to stop over in Kuwait first.
Apparently they manufacture it and sell it in Saudi and Kuwait for cash. Very much likely thats the case.
I just know its popular with ISIS troops , so I dnt know was it to help recruit ppl sleeping cells here or goin to Iraq or Saudi. but good job
Good lord that’s a buttload of pills. This is a massive amount of effort and money. I hope all effort by the authorities is taken into tracking this back to the source and I look forward to reading about it in the newspapers one day soon.
The downside is the money has been paid for the pills. The bad guys are now in possession of a massive amount of money- how will that pan out for us civilians when these criminals have so much money???

Little known fun fact:
Brock and Jones also had C samples tested. Both came back positive for Captagon.
You’re welcome.
Well, it was all over Twitter, Reddit and MMA sites yesterday after Arthur got suspended so wouldn’t really call it a little known fact anymore.
Wait, what!? Positive for Captagon? I was just joking!
wait, sorry i read your comments when i woke up and completely misread it.
Note to self: Don’t read and reply to comments when you first wake up.
I thought you were informing me that Jon Jones’s brother got busted for PED use as well and thats what I was referring to when I said it was in the news yesterday. Didn’t read Brock or Captagon lol
Love the background music..so Armageddon. Then again with that many pills in the blood system of psycos it might as well be Armageddondon
Cheerios without the donut hole
How come no one asked: what is that mini-rocket like structure anyway?
Wouldn’t it be easy to just let it stand vertically and drill some holes right at the bottom?
Is there going to be naming, shaming and jailing or we just get to watch the video and the culprit is set free?
If that is what they seized then imagine the amount that got in!!!
BTW this amount is peanuts to let them enjoy the seizure so that they are distracted from the real amounts entering the country, it really is a huge problem that no one cares about still.
Looks like breakfast cereal; can someone translate the interview? Are they talking about how the managed to catch it, where it was coming from, etc.
Captagon is crap
