Saudi Detains Two Oyo Pilgrims For Drug Trafficking by Nobody: 2:07pm On Oct 19, 2015 |
Two of the 1,191 pilgrims from
Oyo State who performed this
year’s Hajj were detained by the
Saudi Arabian authorities for a
drug-related offence.
Secretary, Oyo State Pilgrims
Welfare Board, Alhaji Adeleke
AbdulKareem, disclosed this in an
interview with the News Agency
of Nigeria in Ibadan on Monday.
Abdulkareem said the affected
pilgrims were females, adding
that one of them escaped while
the other was still in detention.
He said the drug found with the
pilgrims was Tramador, a
contraband in Saudi Arabia,
which the pilgrims had been
warned against.
The secretary also said two other
pilgrims from the state died due
to ill health before Arafat Day.
Abdulkareem said the last batch
of pilgrims from the state arrived
Nigeria on October 11.
He warned pilgrims to always
comply with the rules and
regulation of the Saudi
authorities to avoid being
arrested or tarnishing the
country’s image. www.punchng.com/news/saudi-detains-two-oyo-pilgrims-for-drug-trafficking/ |

Do people read before they hastily comment? "He said the drug found with the pilgrims was Tramador, a contraband in Saudi Arabia, which the pilgrims had been warned against." |
