Authorities recovered 6 kilograms of heroin from the possession of the accused during the operation, marking a substantial seizure in the ongoing crackdown on illegal drug trade in the region. The arrest is being seen as a critical step in exposing a wider cross-border trafficking nexus.
Preliminary investigation has revealed that the accused was allegedly operating under the directions of a handler based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The handler has been identified as Interpreet Singh, a resident of Sultanwind, who is believed to be actively involved in narcotics smuggling operations. Officials confirmed that multiple cases have already been registered against Interpreet Singh in connection with drug-related offenses.
Following the arrest and seizure, a formal case has been registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. Law enforcement agencies are continuing their investigation to trace further links in the network and identify other individuals involved in the operation.
The bust underscores the persistent threat posed by international drug syndicates and highlights the intensified efforts of intelligence and enforcement agencies to curb the flow of illegal narcotics into the region.
