Description

PHILADELPHIA – For the second time in three days, Pennsylvania U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers seized a load of khat from Kenya after discovering 97 pounds of the illicit narcotic concealed inside herbal hair dye bags near Philadelphia International Airport on February 8. On February 6, Pittsburgh CBP officers seized 110 of khat concealed under packages of wig and hair extensions. In the latest seizure, Philadelphia CBP officers discovered the khat in an international air cargo parcel. The khat, which was destined for an address in Douglasville, Ga., was packaged inside sealed white plastic bags labeled as herbal hair dye. The khat weighed 43.9 kilograms, or about 96 pounds, 12 ounces, and had a street value of as much as $25,000.
