The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) Intelligence operation on Saturday helped bust an unprecedented 7 billion rupees worth of drug smuggling attempt.
According to a private television channel report, a total of 700 kilograms of high-grade heroin and 80 kilograms of opium/cocaine was seized in the operation. It was revealed that the operation took place at Port Qasim International Container Terminal in Karachi.
The container has been booked under a pseudonym which has been traced back to a resident of Sahiwal, Punjab. Earlier on April 3, Pakistan Navy along with officials of Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) seized a huge cache of heroin during a sea operation. According to a spokesman for the navy, a joint intelligence-based operation was conducted by the Pakistan Navy and the Anti-Narcotics Force at Pishukan near Jiwani, Balochistan.
A huge cache of narcotics, including 100 kilograms of ice-drug was seized in the joint operation. A PMSA vessel located and subsequently approached a suspicious fast speed boat of suspected smugglers, seized the drugs and impounded the boat.
