Major Crackdown on Trans-border Drug Smuggling

The Anti-Narcotics Task Force, in collaboration with the Border Security Force, successfully intercepted a major drug smuggling operation, seizing 20 kg of heroin and arresting four suspects, authorities announced Tuesday.

Director General of Police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav revealed that the suspects, particularly a key operative in the operation, were linked to Pakistan-based handlers, orchestrating an elaborate drug supply chain that stretched across the region.

An FIR has been filed under the NDPS Act, initiating an investigation aimed at unmasking cross-border connections, uncovering supply routes, and dismantling the extensive smuggling network, according to DGP Yadav's statement on platform X.
