The Department of Narcotics Control and the Anti-Corruption Commission have intensified efforts to identify and confiscate illegal wealth accumulated through drug trafficking. The crackdown has reportedly caused concern among local drug dealers, many of whom have gone into hiding.

Tarek had previously been arrested with 6.5 kilograms of heroin.
