In a crackdown on smuggling operations across various regions of Balochistan, the Frontier Corps (FC) Balochistan has successfully intercepted illegal goods valued at over Rs123 million during operations conducted from April 17 to May 17, 2024.
The operations, carried out in areas including Dera Allah Yar, Barkhan, Pishin, Chaman, and Mastung, saw the confiscation of a substantial quantity of smuggled items.
Among the seized goods were 76 metric tons of sugar, 671 tires, 159 cartons of cigarettes, and 82,900 liters of Iranian diesel.
In addition to these items, authorities also recovered other contraband such as fertilizers, solar panels, and non-customs paid vehicles. These seized goods were promptly handed over to customs authorities for further action.
The smugglers had been attempting to transport these illicit items through various means including trucks, passenger buses, and clandestine routes.
However, the timely intervention of FC Balochistan foiled their attempts, preventing the illegal flow of goods across the region.
