102kg of heroin from Afghanistan busted at Attari

Hindustan Times  

Indian customs seized 102kg of heroin hidden in consignment of liquorice that was being imported from Afghanistan at the Attari check post, which monitors the country’s trade with Pakistan and Afghanistan, officials said on Sunday. “The truck was not scanned through the truck scanner when it entered India on Friday because for the scanner has been lying dysfunctional,” said a customs official, who didn’t wish to be named. The customs department, which is responsible for checking trucks importing goods at the check post, had conducted unsuccessful trials on the scanner after it was installed in November 2019. Since the foundation stone of the check post was laid in 2010, there has been a demand for a truck scanner as manual checking of vehicles by customs officials with sniffer dogs is not foolproof and has sometimes led to clearing of contraband materials.
