The Airport Security Force (ASF) successfully intercepted an attempt to smuggle heroin at Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport on Tuesday.
According to an ASF spokesperson, a passenger identified as Muhammad Shoaib was caught with 1.2 kilograms of heroin hidden in his luggage during a routine inspection.
ASF personnel swiftly acted to recover the illicit drugs and prevented the smuggling attempt. The accused, along with the recovered drugs, was handed over to the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) for further legal action. The seized heroin is estimated to be worth millions in the international market.
Authorities are continuing their investigation into the matter.
