Drug seizures in Ceuta doubled in 2009 compared to 2008, according to a report from the government delegation. The Guardia Civil, which attributes the findings to the recession,, went from seizing 10,876 kilos of hashish in 2008, to 19,700 in 2009, while the Policía Nacional also doubled its operations, arresting 58 people involved in organized drug trafficking. Most operations took place at the port, with checks on passengers and vehicles headed to Algeciras, while a lesser percentage at the frontier with Morocco.
