Drug-pushers dig in for 2010 World Cup, and Africa Cup

There is an increased flow of hard drugs through Zambia - and possibly through other countries in the region - basically en route to South Africa in time for next year's World Cup finals while the Africa Cup of African Nations (AFCON) tournament in Angola in January also seems to be attracting another flow.

In recent months, seizures of hard drugs in Zambia, for instance, have become the order of the day for a country where usage of such drugs is virtually unknown.
