RABAT, Morocco —
Two Italians were arrested in Morocco while trying to smuggle hashish hidden inside condoms and sausages into neighboring Algeria, officials said Friday.
Customs agents found 15 pounds of cannabis oil, a potent form of hashish, hidden inside 63 condoms placed under the floorboards of the Italians’ car. They also discovered 10 pounds of concentrated hashish leaf disguised as sausages.
Morocco is currently engaged in a major crackdown on drug trafficking in cooperation with European countries.
