Balochistan Frontier Constabulary (FC) in a joint operation with Customs officials conducted targeted operations in various areas of the province against drug smugglers. Acting on a credible tip-off, FC recently seized a substantial haul of prohibited chemical ephedrine and other non-permissible items in the Yaro area of Pashin district. The operation resulted in the confiscation of approximately 3400 kg of ephedrine, a banned substance, alongside other items including urea, cigarettes, and tires. The smugglers had ingeniously hidden these items within trucks in an attempt to avoid detection. The estimated value of the seized items is a staggering Rs63 million. The confiscated goods were promptly handed over to customs authorities after being intercepted during the attempted smuggling.
