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.
