The Royal Oman Police (ROP) has arrested six men of Asian origin for possession of narcotics, including 32 kilograms of crystal meth and 23 kilograms of marijuana.
The operation was carried out by the Directorate General for Combating Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, which confirmed that legal action is now underway against the suspects.
