Gujarat ATS arrests Amritsar man in cross-border smuggling case

In a significant breakthrough, the Gujarat Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has apprehended a man from Amritsar in connection with a cross-border smuggling operation involving heroin, grenades, and firearms. The suspect was arrested in the Rakhial area of Ahmedabad, where authorities are intensifying their efforts to combat drug trafficking and related crimes. This arrest follows a major seizure of 42.9 kilograms of heroin, highlighting the ongoing challenges posed by illicit drug networks operating across the India-Pakistan border. The Gujarat ATS is expected to conduct further investigations to uncover the broader network involved in this smuggling operation and its potential links to organized crime. The incident underscores the urgent need for enhanced border control measures as law enforcement agencies strive to dismantle these dangerous smuggling routes that threaten national security and public safety.
