The Pakistan Maritime Security Agency, in a joint operation with the Pakistan Customs, was said to have foiled a smuggling bid, seized a huge cache of drugs and arrested 16 suspects, including 11 foreigners.
Officials of the PMSA and the customs reportedly conducted a joint operation at open sea on April 26 on a tip-off and intercepted two boats. While searching the boats, they discovered a huge cache of drugs, which included 2,410 kilograms of hashish, 181 kilograms of crystal ice, 133 kilograms of brown crystal.
