Hurghada buying MDMA pills

A British woman being held in Egypt on drug smuggling charges says she had 'no idea' the prescription painkillers she was carrying were banned there. Laura Plummer, 33, is due in court on Saturday accused of smuggling tablets of Tramadol, a painkiller that is legal in the UK but not in Egypt. The shop assistant from Hull says they were given to her for her Egyptian boyfriend's 'back problems'. Ms Plummer's relatives hope the judge at her custody hearing in the Red Sea Resort of Hurghada on Saturday will believe she made an innocent mistake - drug smuggling can be punishable by death in Egypt. Tramadol is legal in the UK with a prescription but banned in Egypt where many are addicted to the opiate. Ms Plummer told the BBC that a colleague had given her the tablets in a chemist's bag that she put in her suitcase. She said her cell in a police station was the size of her bedroom in the UK, but she was having to share it with 25 other women. She said her spirits were at rock bottom and she dreamt of coming home, catching up with her favourite soap opera Emmerdale, sleeping in her own bed, and having a cup of tea. She added her shared cell was claustrophobic, that it was sometimes hard to breathe and that although her fellow prisoners were trying to look after her, none of them spoke English. Skip to content.

Ancient Egyptians were among the first to experience the narcotic bliss of opium. But, despite strict crackdowns on getting high in Egypt, a unique underground drug scene is thriving in Cairo. Here there is a taste for black market opioids and tranquillisers, hash and bango the local name for weed , a new breed of synthetic drugs, and the same locally-harvested opium that has been around for thousands of years. Like President Sadat! Back then, every household in Egypt had some hash. It was practically legal then. Fearful of society being corrupted from within by drug addiction, civil servants are now subjected to random drug tests , penalties for being caught with drugs are increasingly harsh. There are currently 11 people on death row for drug offences. Large quantities of cannabis for distribution can earn you a life sentence, which translates to 25 years in prison. Anything over ten kilos also makes you ineligible for a presidential pardon, as does any amount of heroin. In , a British woman was handed three years in prison after trying to take tramadol pills to the Red Sea resort of Hurghada. In April, Egypt and Liverpool football star Mo Salah starred in a government anti-drugs campaign appealing for young people to avoid drugs and warning Nile fishermen of the perils of addiction. Egypt fought the original war on drugs. Later, in the s, the Egyptian delegation to the League of Nations requested that the herb be put on the list of most dangerous narcotics. The Egyptian authorities still take a dim view of unsanctioned states of consciousness. Tramadol, a synthetic opioid pill, is a heavily controlled drug in Egypt and is most commonly bought illegally. And for sex, of course, because you can go longer. But tramadol can also make you feel sick as any other \[opioid\] drug. In Cairo, tramadol is taken by manual workers to stay awake during long shifts. A study of blue-collar workers working in the mid Nile delta region around Cairo found that nine in ten builders, half of bus drivers and a quarter of textile workers regularly took tramadol. They told researchers they took the opioid as a way of lifting their mood or relieving pain relief during heavy or long work shifts. Out of random patients screened for illicit drugs before they underwent surgery at a hospital in Cairo, 14 percent tested positive, with more than one in ten having cannabis and one in 20 having tramadol in their system. After being reclassified as a controlled substance in Egypt in , tramadol was pushed underground and cheap pills from factories in China and India flooded the black market in the aftermath of the revolution in , smuggled through seaports such as Alexandria. By , authorities were finding five times the number of tablets they did five years previously. Chaos in neighbouring Libya , meanwhile, opened another smuggling route from the west for tramadol, as well as Moroccan hash and to a lesser degree, cocaine. The latter is sometimes moved onwards to Israel , where Israeli troops have spotted smugglers tossing bricks of the white stuff over the border fence. And in , the government updated its drug laws to include the synthetic cannabinoids Strox and Voodoo. Despite heavy penalties for those convicted of drug offences, police in Cairo have been known to take bribes. So most people here prefer hash from Morocco. There are a few varieties of hash: in Cairo, the locally-produced stuff is considered low quality and mixed with additives, so many prefer the pricier Moroccan imports. While opium poppies were cultivated on the banks of the River Nile in BC, since the s they have been grown by Bedouin nomads on the Sinai Peninsula. Both the police and military have taken part in counternarcotics operations in the Sinai. In a series of operations last year, troops claimed to destroy bango plantations and 1, poppy fields.
