After being learned about an automobile containing illicit drug departing for one of the central provinces, the issue went specifically on the agenda of the province's anti-narcotics police officers, said Second Brigadier General Mahdi Ansari, police chief of the province.
He went on to say that in an inspection station on the ُShiraz-Yasuj highway, the officers suspected a Peugeot 405 car and order it to stop but the driver refused to obey.
Regardless of police warnings, the driver fled the scene at a high speed, he said, adding that after several warnings shots, the car stopped.
The police officers seized 236 km of opium and arrested the driver, he added.
