Islamabad Airport Customs Seize 47 kg of Cannabis and Hashish From Two Passengers

One of the passengers is a Thai national on flight TG-349.

By Donte West · Oct 15, 2026

Customs officers at Islamabad International Airport made two drug seizures totalling 47 kg in early October 2026. One haul was about 23 kg of suspected cannabis, and the other about 24 kg of hashish.

The first passenger was a Thai national on Thai Airways flight TG-349, named in the report as Naeehaphong Pueehykosai, as printed in the source. The passenger was taken into custody and a case was registered. The report does not state the second passenger's nationality. Legal proceedings are said to be under way for both.

Why it matters: The report says legal proceedings are under way for both passengers, but it gives no charges or court dates.
