The Commissionerate Police in Amritsar has successfully dismantled a major drug trafficking network by arresting four individuals, including a woman, and recovering a significant 5 kg of heroin. The suspects, who were operating a smuggling operation with links to Pakistan, received shipments via drones, which were dropped into Punjab. This method of drug delivery underscores the increasing challenges faced by law enforcement in dealing with cross-border smuggling activities.
The arrested individuals have been charged under various sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, and the police are investigating whether more associates were involved in this operation. The authorities have emphasized their commitment to tackling the drug menace by dismantling such networks that pose serious threats to public health and safety.
