Punjab News: Punjab Police Nabs Another Suspect in Massive Heroin Haul Case

Punjab News: In an ongoing operation following a major drug bust involving 105 kg of heroin, Punjab Police's Counter Intelligence Unit apprehended Lovepreet Singh, a resident of Kapurthala. Lovepreet was found with 6 kg of heroin in his car, reportedly intended for transfer to another peddler, Navjot Singh, who had been arrested a day earlier. The operation, reported by Punjab DGP, is part of a larger crackdown on cross-border drug smuggling networks. The heroin consignment was initially picked up from Hanumangarh in Rajasthan, indicating an inter-state network with potential cross-border connections.

State Special Operations Cell Leads Extensive Investigation

The State Special Operations Cell (SSOC) in Amritsar has registered an FIR, and further investigations are ongoing to identify additional linkages in the smuggling chain. Punjab Police’s focus on breaking down this narcotics network demonstrates the department’s commitment to addressing the state’s drug-related issues, which have long impacted local communities. This series of arrests may pave the way to disrupt large-scale operations, ensuring safer communities and putting a spotlight on inter-state coordination against drug trafficking.

Collaboration with Other Agencies to Expand Probe

Given the heroin’s origin in Rajasthan, authorities are working closely with regional and central intelligence agencies to investigate both "forward" (distribution) and "backward" (supply chain) linkages. This collaborative approach aims to dismantle the network’s entire supply chain, from suppliers to local distributors, further strengthening Punjab’s fight against the drug epidemic.
