<h1>Australian Customs Seize 4kg of Pseudoephedrine Hidden as Herbs, Preventing $1.5M Meth Production; Investigation Ongoing.</h1> Australian Customs officers in Sydney intercepted a parcel from India containing approximately four kilograms of pseudoephedrine tablets, falsely declared as Himalayan herbs. Pseudoephedrine is a precursor in methamphetamine production, and the seized amount could yield methamphetamine valued at up to $1.5 million. The tablets were hidden in 47 bottles labeled as 'Himalaya pure herbs.' Following the discovery, Customs executed search warrants at a property in Victoria, with several individuals assisting in the investigation. The operation highlights ongoing efforts to prevent illegal importation of precursor chemicals, with penalties for such offenses reaching up to 25 years imprisonment and/or a $550,000 fine.
