Police claimed to have busted an international drug racket with the arrest
of three persons in Ludhiana. Police recovered heroin worth 200 million rupees,
a revolver, 6 live cartridges and nine lakhs of rupees from their possession.
Addressing reporters here, Jaskaran Singh, additional intelligence general, counterintelligence
cell, said an attempt was on to mount large-scale smuggling of heroin. "We have
busted an international racket involved in smuggling of drugs. Recently, a chief
of an international drug smuggling gang came to India from Canada and mobilised
a team of three people for collecting and smuggling heroin on a mass scale. We
broke the nexus and arrested three people from Ludhiana," he said. The amount
