JEDDAH — The Penal Court is putting nine suspects under trial for the smuggling of hashish into Briman Prison using drones.

The general attorney said investigations of the hashish smuggling attempt using a drone resulted in arresting nine suspects, two of whom are prison guards suspected of cooperating with the other suspects.

“The leader of the gang has is a drug lord with a previous criminal record. He was previously sentenced to 15 years in prison for being involved in drug deals and public fights. He was released six years ago and he returned to drug dealing immediately. I think he should receive the death sentence,” said the general attorney.
