The forth largest seizure of heroine and morphine was reported from China - far more than from India or the United States of America. This indicates that China is beginning to have a serious drug problem. In relation to the population size, the Netherlands had rather high seizures of heroine and morphine - far larger than Germany, France or the United States of America. China and India had only small amounts of heroine seizures in relation to population size. |
