BSF recovers two drones, heroin from border villages
Following specific inputs, BSF troops confiscated two drones and two packets of heroin in three separate incidents in the border belt here on Saturday.
A broken drone along with a packet of heroin weighing around 550 gram was seized from Dhanoe Kalan village near the international border. Similarly, another broken drone was seized from Uttar Dhariwal village.
In the third incident, a packet of heroin weighing around 510 gram was found from Roranwala Khurd village.
A BSF spokesman said that both the drones seized were China-made DJI Mavic 3 Classic. The heroin packets were wrapped in yellow adhesive tape.
He said the BSF was committed to prevent any illicit movement of Pakistani narco-drones from across the border and dashing the attempts by cross-border narco-syndicates to push in drugs and weapons.
Meanwhile, one more drone was recovered from the border belt in Tarn Taran. BSF authorities said they received information about the presence of a drone in the border area of Tarn Taran district and launched a search operation in collaboration with the Punjab Police. At about 6:30 pm, troops successfully recovered a drone in damaged condition from a harvested paddy field adjacent to Wan village. It was a China-made DJI Mavic 3 Classic.
