Narco Warriors: Secrets From The Global Drug War

12: The Afghan Kidnapping: Inside the Mujahideen Caves & The 3kg Mule


Listen Later

An officer kidnapped in Afghanistan, the drug Mule carrying three kilograms of cocaine in his stomach, staying alive in Africa - and taking on the Turkish Connection. 

They were invited to an arms fair. They ended up in chains. Deep inside hostile territory on the Afghan border, three western Drug Liaison Officers find themselves kidnapped by Mujahideen fighters.

Any rescue attempt risked turning into a “bloodbath.”

Our veteran insiders reveal the “silver command” rescue mission, the 50-man fortified stronghold they faced, and the reality of life inside the mountain caves of Spin Boldak, in Afghanistan's Kandahar Province.

Plus, drug smuggling mules. They take a lethal risk that defies human biology… that's likely to leave a lump in your throat.

These are the Narco Warriors.
