The Airport Security Force (ASF) on Friday thwarted a bid to smuggle drugs worth millions of rupees at the Bacha Khan International Airport, Peshawar, apprehending three persons. The passenger onboard EK 637 was heading to Dubai when, during a search, the law enforcement agency found 3,800 grams of crystal methamphetamine from his possession. According to ASF, the apprehended man is a resident of Peshawar, saying two others accompanying him, including one person from a courier company, were also taken into custody.
