The Pakistan Coast Guards effectively executed a major operation in Pasni, Balochistan, resulting in the seizure of a substantial 1488 kilograms of narcotics, valued at around $24.83 million (Rs. 7.4 billion).

Reliable intelligence prompted the operation, targeting a large-scale drug trafficking operation. Specialized search teams were rapidly assembled to respond to the imminent threat.

This accomplishment follows prior successful collaborative operations. The Pakistan Navy and Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) combined forces to achieve significant outcomes in countering drug-related activities. In the expansive North Arabian Sea, a joint Intelligence-Based Counter Narcotics Operation resulted in the interception and confiscation of approximately 4,020 kilograms of hashish.

Swift and coordinated actions led to the confiscation of a substantial drug haul weighing 1488 kilograms, believed to be intended for illegal trafficking activities that same night.

In a separate operation, a Pakistan Navy vessel operating in the Arabian Sea intercepted smugglers, recovering 280 kilograms of crystal meth in March. The estimated market value of the seized drugs stood at an impressive Rs. 4 billion.
