KABUL, March 28 (Xinhua) -- Police have discovered 35 kg of illegal drugs in western Afghanistan's Nimroz province and arrested two alleged drug smugglers, said a statement of the country's Ministry of Interior Affairs on Saturday.

Without providing more details, the statement noted that no one is allowed to produce or traffic illegal drugs anywhere in the country.

Over the past month, police have burned several tons of illegal drugs in the southern Kandahar and the neighbouring Helmand and Uruzgan provinces.
