— PUNJAB POLICE COMMITTED TO MAKING PUNJAB A DRUG FREE STATE AS PER DIRECTIONS OF CM BHAGWANT SINGH MANN

— ARRESTED ACCUSED HARMANDEEP WAS CONSTANTLY IN-TOUCH WITH PAK-BASED SMUGGLER CHACHA BAWA, SAYS DGP GAURAV YADAV

— PAK-BASED SMUGGLER CHACHA BAWA WAS USING DRONES TO DELIVER HEROIN CONSIGNMENTS ACROSS BORDER

CHANDIGARH/AMRITSAR, February 19:

                Amidst the ongoing war against drugs waged on the directions of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, Counter Intelligence (CI) Amritsar has busted a cross-border drug smuggling racket with the arrest of a drug smuggler and recovered 10 kg heroin from his possession, said Director General of Police (DGP) Punjab Gaurav Yadav here on Wednesday.

                The arrested accused has been identified as Harmandeep Singh, a resident of village Ghumanpura in Amritsar. Apart from recovering heroin, Police teams have also impounded his black coloured Hero Splendor Motorcycle (PB02EW5675), which he was riding.

                DGP Gaurav Yadav said that the team of CI Amritsar received a reliable input that accused Harmandeep has established relations with the Pakistan-based drug smugglers and recently got a huge consignment of heroin from Pakistan, which he is going to deliver to someone at Ram Tirath Road, Morh Village Kale near Dera Radha Swami in Amritsar.

                Acting swiftly on the inputs, CI Amritsar has launched an intelligence-based operation and arrested accused Harmandeep Singh at a Special Police Checkpoint established at Ram Tirat Road in Amritsar, he said, while adding that during search, 10 Kgs of heroin has been recovered from the accused.

                The DGP said preliminary investigation has revealed that the arrested accused was constantly in-touch with Pakistan-based smuggler identified as Chacha Bawa, who sent heroin consignment via drones in the Attari sector for further supplying to other parties of the state.

                He said that further investigations are going on to establish backward and forward linkages in this case and identify other associates involved in this drug smuggling racket. More recovery of narcotics and arrests are likely in coming days, he added.

                In this regard, a case FIR No. 8 dated 18.02.2025 has been registered under sections 21, 25 and 29 of the NDPS Act at Police Station State Special Operations Cell (SSOC), Amritsar.— PUNJAB POLICE COMMITTED TO MAKING PUNJAB A DRUG FREE STATE AS PER DIRECTIONS OF CM BHAGWANT SINGH MANN
