Maj-Gen Al Mansouri added that the arrest gave a severe blow to the accomplices of the gang, which comprises three big drug lords, two of them from an Asian country, and a third from another country.

suspect's residence and the crystal anesthetic was found hidden in different places not easy to detect. The accused made a large hole in the roof of his bedroom, which is covered with wood to conceal the drugs, and the police also found scales meant to weigh them.

He added that the team later managed to nab the second defendant, called A.G.J., 32, in an ambush in Sharjah while he was delivering the crystal anesthetic to an undercover police.

The police also raided his room at a workers' accommodation where they found drugs kept in small bags and scales to weigh them.
