In accordance with Johan Odolathe, offer of the Mexican cartels in the house of the World Cup 2022 is not limited to cocaine, but also includes methamphetamines and captagon, known as “the drug of the jihadists”, a powerful amphetamine that is capable of stimulating the nervous system to prevent sleep for more than 36 hours and which is very popular among the ranks of terrorist groups. 

But in the months prior to the opening of the World Cup, the use of captagon —also called “the cocaine of the poor”— had another use in Qatar: it increased among migrants from poor countries in the Middle East who worked at forced marches in construction of new stadiums.
