Punjab police arrest two over alleged involvement in espionage, recover arms near Indo-Pak border in separate cases



Border Security Forces (BSF) and Punjab Police in a joint operation recovered weapons and ammunition from arms syndicates along the international border in Punjab. RDX, hand grenades and other ammunition were being sent via drones in Amritsar and Ferozepur sector. In another post on X, Yadav wrote that the BSF and Amritsar Rural Police “successfully foiled a major drone based smuggling attempt.” “On May 10, acting swiftly on information from alert locals near village Chak Bala (under PS Ajnala), our teams recovered a consignment of arms and explosives from agriculture fields,” he wrote. He added that the seized material includes two .30 calibre pistols with four magazines, 30 live cartridges, two hand grenades, two lever detonators, remote control devices and charger, a command mechanism, eight batteries, a black box, and 972 grams of RDX. “An FIR has been registered under the Explosive Substances Act, Arms Act, & Aircraft Act,” the post read.
