Israeli authorities have charged a 20-year-old man from Bir Hadaj with attempting to smuggle hundreds of Captagon pills and over 15 kilograms of marijuana into Jordan. The suspect was apprehended at the Rabin border crossing in Eilat last month after customs officials discovered the illicit substances in his suitcase. Captagon, a potent stimulant, is prevalent in the region and has been linked to recent violent incidents. Following a completed investigation, prosecutors have filed an indictment and are seeking to keep the suspect in custody throughout the legal process.
