- Authorities seized pistols, magazines, and ammunition in a sweeping operation to counter organized crime and illegal arms trade in Punjab.
In a major crackdown, the Amritsar Police Commissionerate has dismantled an interstate weapon smuggling ring, arresting seven operatives involved in the operation, a senior police official reported on Thursday.
Punjab's Director General of Police, Gaurav Yadav, revealed that the smuggling module is connected to USA-based handler Dilpreet Singh. The police recovered 12 pistols, 16 magazines, and 23 cartridges from the operation.
