Algerian and Moroccan authorities also reported seizures of heroin, however, the quantities seized were smaller, totalling less than 10 kg in 2014. The South African Police Service reported an increase in the number of clandestine drug manufacturing laboratories producing synthetic drugs such as meth-amphetamine (known locally as “tick”), largely intended for the illicit market in South Africa. West Africa appears to have become an established source of the methamphetamine that is smuggled into East and South-East Asia via South Africa or Europe.
