In a major breakthrough against cross-border narcotics smuggling, the Jammu Zone Police on Wednesday recovered a drone-dropped consignment of heroin, weighing 3 kilograms in the Bishnah area along the India-Pakistan border. The consignment was recovered in the morning, Police said.
Acting on precise intelligence developed over the past week, police teams had been maintaining a strict, round-the-clock vigil in the suspected sectors. The meticulous planning paid off when the illicit payload was intercepted and seized before it could reach its intended recipients.

A team from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) reached the spot to conduct a detailed analysis of the recovered contraband and gather vital scientific evidence.
This successful seizure is a testament to the unwavering commitment of the Jammu Police to dismantle the narco-terror ecosystem. It highlights the force’s enhanced vigilance and tactical capability in countering emerging technological threats, such as drone-based smuggling from across the border, Police said.
A comprehensive investigation is underway to trace the forward and backward linkages of the Pakistani network.
