"Kuki, Kuki, lend me your comb." (if you get this one you're
pretty old - hint: '77 Sunset Strip').
Istanbul narcotics police had an interesting case in Esenyurt. Three
drug smugglers snuck opium gum, the raw material for heroin, into
Istanbul from Afghanistan and brought it to a depot in Küçükçekmece,
where the gum was put through a meat grinder to soften it.
Next, the suspects put the softened opium gun into two sewing
machine motors (!) and brought them to a cargo company in Esenyurt.
The sewing machine motors were each worth 350 TL (about $35) but
the suspects paid 12,000 TL (about $1,500) to the cargo company to
ship both motors to Holland.
Based on a tip about this excessive cargo cost for two cheap motors,
narcotics police went to the cargo company to inspect the motors and
found 64.280 kilograms of opium gun secreted within, with the aid of
'Kuki', a drug-sniffing canine. The value of the drugs was put at
3 million TL (about $380,000).
Subsequently, armed with the address provided to the cargo company
by the suspects, police raided their depot in Küçükçekmece and took
one of them into custody and then to jail. The two other suspects
remain at large.
