Haredim being used as drug mules
Mifletzet:
The photo is merely meant as an example of the types of young fellows in the burgeoning Haredi population whom a crook would jus' love to use to smuggle drugs, wittingly or unwittingly, in the Tefillin batim "for his friend Moishe"!
An article in Misphacha interviewed the chief customs officer at Ben Gurion Airport, where he stated that all Haredim, men and women (yes: drugs have been found inside sheitels!) are now given extra special attention and surveillance, also for illegal amounts of cash (>$40,000), and produce (bringing in an etrog without a licence can get you a $5000 fine!).
The Rabbonim have ordered their devotees not to travel with any suitcases, only a minimum of hand luggage, and absolutely no gifts for anyone.
A well known British Haredi was recently caught with drugs at Paris airport, and is now facing 4 years in the slammer!

Never carry any package or envelope for anyone - even yer own mutha!

Three then, not 4? So what has the picture of 4 charedim on bicycles that you posted have to do with it?
--- End quote ---
Probably nothing.

Well spotted Sherlock.
However, you didn't spot that I quoted Mifletzet because it's he who posted it and it's really for him to answer. Why he posted the picture.

No I did spot that, I just anticipated his answer and answered on his behalf.

Better that way, otherwise actual drug dealers could just dress up in a streimel and smuggle all sorts of stuff. I'm curious how you found this article

We know what charedim look like, and don't have to identify all charedim with 3 minors used as drug mules.
These ones were probably riding bicycles because a car is expensive, not because they are naiive. Infact they all have beards. And none of those in that picture look like minors either.
Chaim Ben Pesach:

This is a disgusting anti-Semitic thread. 99.99% of Charedim are not in any way involved with this. I spent five and a half years in prison and met thousands of drug dealers. Not one was a Charedi Jew.
