Has the paper drug arrived in Lebanon

The article discusses the phenomenon of using drug-laced papers, known as "paper drugs," as a modern method of smuggling narcotics. Users consume psychoactive substances or synthetic cannabinoids by swallowing small papers soaked in chemical solutions. This technique, which originated in American prisons and then spread beyond them, poses significant health risks such as hallucinations, loss of perception, and addiction. It is also difficult to detect because of variations in the composition and density of the papers. Security agencies face a challenge in uncovering these papers, especially when they are in small quantities, due to the difficulty in identifying the substances and their concentrations. Although widespread use has not yet been recorded in Lebanon, trafficking networks are continuously evolving, employing unconventional hiding methods. This necessitates that authorities develop their detection and analysis techniques to confront this emerging phenomenon.
