Mamlaka ya Kudhibiti Dawa za Kulevya (GDNC) imeeleza hayo baada ya kunasa tembe milioni 47 Dawa za Kulevya aina ya za Amphetamine ambazo zilikuwa zimefichwa kwenye shehena ya unga, ikiwa ni jaribio kubwa zaidi la kusafirisha dawa hizo.
Kwa mujibu wa Wizara ya Mambo ya Ndani, Vidonge hivyo vilikutwa kwenye ghala baada ya kuwasili kupitia bandari kavu ya mji wa Riyadh, ambapo raia sita wa Syria na wawili wa Pakistani walikamatwa kwa kuhusika na usafirishaji na wengine 8 waliotajwa kuwa wanunuzi.
Ingawa Mamlaka hazikutaja mzigo huo ulikotoka, Ofisi ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Kupambana na Dawa za Kulevya na Uhalifu (UNODC) ilisema ripoti za kukamatwa kwa Amphetamine kutoka nchi za Mashariki ya Kati zinaendelea kujirudia ukanda huo.

CNN reported that Saudi authorities have confiscated 47 million amphetamine pills that were hidden in a flour shipment, in an operation described as the biggest one-time drug smuggling attempt in terms of narcotics seized.
The pills were confiscated at a warehouse after arriving through the dry port of the capital Riyadh, the Saudi Ministry of Interior said in a statement.
Eight people were arrested on suspicion of smuggling the drugs, according to a spokesperson for the General Directorate of Narcotics Control (GDNC).
The ministry said the seizure was the biggest one-time drug smuggling attempt in terms of narcotics seized.

The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) previously said “reports of amphetamine seizures from countries in the Middle East continue to refer predominantly to tablets bearing the Captagon logo.”
Captagon was originally the brand name for a medicinal product containing the synthetic stimulant fenethylline. Though it is no longer produced legally, drugs carrying the Captagon name are regularly seized in the Middle East, according to the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction.
The counterfeit Captagon tablets contain amphetamine as well as other chemicals, according to the UNODC.
