Sunday has uncovered something suspicious in the shadow of the
Mosque in Hamilton - men leaving afternoon prayers and filing into
a house next door for their recreational drug of choice.
It's bags of "khat", an amphetamine-like stimulant which is
classified as an illegal class C drug in this country.
They chew it to bring on a state of euphoria and excitement.
Several million people in East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula are
habitual chewers - now they're doing it in Hamilton. Sunday exposes
the "khat" culture.
