The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) on Sunday foiled a bid to smuggle narcotics to United Kingdom (UK) from Allama Iqbal International Airport, Lahore.
According to the ANF, the narcotics were booked via a private courier company for the UK and after being scanned, it emerged that the package carries 13 kilogrammes of the drug.
The parcel was booked by a resident of Peshawar, identified as Muhammad Ismail, for Britain. The authorities have launched a probe into the matter to arrest the accused involved in the bid.
This is not the first time that the ANF has recovered drugs from airports bound for foreign destinations.
