Doha, Qatar: The Customs officials at Hamad International Airport (HIA) foiled an attempt to smuggle heroin into Qatar, hidden inside electronic devices.
The inspectors became suspicious of a traveler’s luggage upon his arrival in the country.

Custom officials then concluded the search, finding a total of 13 packages of heroin, weighing a total of 520 grams.
