The total value of the seized liquor and heroin is estimated to be 60 million rupees in the international market. These operations are part of the PCG’s ongoing efforts to combat illicit activities in Balochistan, where they have previously seized large quantities of drugs, including 2,000 kilograms of narcotics in Pasni, valued at $34.241 million in the global market.
These operations reflect the Pakistan Coast Guards’ continued success in curbing smuggling and terrorist activities in the region.
