Upon physical inspection, ICA officers found suspected cannabis blocks concealed within boxes containing gloves. CNB officers were immediately alerted, and further checks were conducted.
最终，工作人员在该集装箱内共查获1290块大麻，总重量约为391公斤。
A total of 1,290 blocks of the drug, weighing about 391kg altogether, were ultimately found in the container.
