ABHA: Dr. Ali Zairi, a consultant psychiatrist at Al-Nakheel Center in Jeddah, said terrorists are using narcotic drugs to lure their members to carry out suicidal attacks.
He said the terrorists are using code names for these drugs such as “abu malaf,” “al-abiyadh,” “bin laden,” “abu qos,” “konogo,” “bazooka,” “abu qosain,” “naqeeb,” “bassam,” and “shaqra-al-maghribiyah.” These are code names for Captagon, amphetamine capsules and hashish, which are linked to crimes, killing, suicide, and attacking others, he said. He said names vary from one location to another.
The psychiatrist said the above drugs break the barrier of fear and are sometimes used in violent and dangerous sports, smuggling operations and fighting battles in war.
He said behaviors shown by drug users reflect high courage and lack of caution with abnormal thinking in the face of death. The drugs lead a person to concentrate on one idea and, accordingly, can be used to manipulate others to implement orders, and allow narcotics traffickers to guide others in thefts and killing, he said.
He said the drugs can also be given to the weak and cowards as compensation for revenge and regaining rights.
The excessive use of Captagon capsules can lead persons carry out terrorist acts as this drug normally “cancels” the mind and makes a person easily docile to guide, thus depriving him from feelings of fear, he said.
On the other hand, cocaine is the most powerful drugs in guiding suicide bombers; hashish is not preferable because it leads to sleep. Ecstasy drugs are also not preferable because their users lose control over the message they are supposed to carry out, he said.
The expert said 90 percent of suicide bombers are given cocaine or Captagon which provide high mental and physical strength, just like a boxer who hits out blindly.
