Five people, including the leader of the gang, were arrested. The suspects smuggled the drugs from Afghanistan. They pack them at home and then sell them to people both inside and outside the country.
The culprits have been identified as Ishaq, Naimatullah, Afzal Ahmed, Muhammad Aqif, and Muhammad Shan. Three of them hail from Quetta, while the remaining migrated from Afghanistan.
The police have seized two vehicles and a digital scale from the suspect’s possession.
According to the CCPO, the seized drugs are worth Rs100 million.
Pakistan’s biggest drug bust was reported in Balochistan’s Pasni last year. The Pakistan Coast Guards confiscated 751kg of methamphetamine and heroin that officials say sells for around Rs20 billion in the international market.
