Pakistan Coast Guards (PCG) have successfully conducted an operation near the Pakistan-Iran border, resulting in the seizure of a significant cache of arms and narcotics. The operation took place near the Old Marine Post, where a boat carrying concealed weapons and drugs was confiscated.
During the search, authorities uncovered four sacks and two LPG cylinders ingeniously used to hide 34 kg of crystal methamphetamine (ice), 42 kg of heroin, and 5.56 mm caliber bullets. The total estimated value of the seized contraband is approximately $26.2 million.
A spokesperson for the Pakistan Coast Guards emphasized their unwavering commitment to protecting the nation’s borders and combating illegal activities. They highlighted the organization’s readiness to act swiftly against smuggling, drug trafficking, and other illicit operations. The spokesperson reaffirmed the PCG’s proactive role in maintaining peace and security in Pakistan’s coastal and border regions.
This operation underscores the PCG’s dedication to preventing the trafficking of dangerous narcotics and illegal weapons that threaten national security and public safety. The confiscated items will be presented as evidence in ongoing investigations as authorities work to dismantle the networks responsible for these smuggling operations.
