Police in Karachi, working alongside a federal intelligence agency, have seized 66 kilograms of high-quality hashish and arrested two suspects during a joint operation in the city’s Mochko area. Authorities said the operation foiled an alleged interprovincial drug smuggling attempt before the narcotics could be distributed.
According to police, the suspects were transporting the drugs from Balochistan to Karachi in a Land Cruiser. The seizure is part of ongoing efforts to disrupt narcotics trafficking networks operating between provinces.
