CHANDIGARH, Jan 6: In a major crackdown on trans-border drug smuggling, the Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF), in coordination with the Border Security Force (BSF), recovered nearly 20 kg of heroin and apprehended four accused, including a key operative managing the supply chain.
Punjab Police Director General of Police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav said on Tuesday that preliminary investigations have revealed links of the main accused with Pakistan-based handlers, who were coordinating the delivery and distribution of drug consignments across the region.
An FIR has been registered under the NDPS Act, and further investigation is underway to identify cross-border handlers, trace supply routes, and dismantle the entire smuggling network, the DGP said in a post on X. (Agencies)
