In a significant drug bust, the Border Security Force (BSF) recovered over 11 kilograms of heroin near the India-Pakistan border in Punjab's Gurdaspur district on Saturday. The interception was based on reliable intelligence.

The operation led to the apprehension of a suspect wandering suspiciously in Pakhoke Mahimara village. The individual, a resident of Amritsar's Chheharta area, was reportedly in possession of a pistol, magazine, live round, and a mobile phone.

Further interrogation of the suspect revealed the location of the narcotics. BSF troops discovered four large packets, tightly wrapped and embedded with illuminating strips.
