Wanted Drug Smuggler Father-Son Duo Arrested in Amritsar, Cash & Weapons Seized

Amritsar : In a major breakthrough against drug trafficking, Amritsar police have arrested a notorious father-son duo involved in smuggling illegal narcotics. The accused had been on the run for a long time and were wanted in multiple cases related to drug peddling. Their arrest marks a significant success in Punjab’s ongoing war against drugs.

During the operation, law enforcement officials recovered a substantial amount of cash and illegal weapons from their possession. The duo was allegedly running a drug network, supplying narcotics across various regions. Authorities believe they had strong connections with larger drug cartels operating in and around Punjab.

The police had been tracking the movements of the accused for several weeks. Acting on a tip-off, a special team raided their hideout in Amritsar, leading to their arrest. The recovered weapons indicate that the accused were also involved in other criminal activities, possibly linked to organized crime.

Officials stated that further investigation is underway to uncover more links and identify other individuals associated with this smuggling network. The Punjab Police has intensified its crackdown on drug trafficking, with multiple arrests in recent months as part of the state’s anti-drug initiative.

The arrest of the father and son has sent a strong message to those involved in the illegal drug trade. Authorities have urged the public to report any suspicious activities related to narcotics to help curb the drug menace in the region.

This latest action highlights the Punjab government’s commitment to eliminating drug-related crimes and ensuring a safer environment for its citizens. The police have assured that more stringent measures will be taken to dismantle such networks and bring all offenders to justice.
