Huge quantity of drugs, ammunition found in Samjhauta Express

[Thorough Pro]

I fail to understand the logic behind Samjhota Express almost 6.5 decades after partition.... the generation that could have benefited from this is long gone. This is now being used as a infiltration platform for illegal migrants.. illegal trade... and fake currency.

Don't forget weapons, problems, diseases, hate sms, they all come to india on Samjhota express.

not surprising

drug trafficking happens on significant scale on Indo-Pak border and this express is pretty good mean for intra-nation trafficking

and in pakistan Ajmal kasab identity could not remained hidden. No matter how much you blabber Pakistan is open in it's dealing with you.

For which we should thank Pakistani Media

ON TOPIC> traffickers involved in this should be captured and punished

however i suspect samjhauta express is used to illegally send indian electronic items, consumer goods, clothes, automobile parts, luxury watches, CDs/DVDs of Bollywood Movies etc. to Pakistan by some Indian Traders.

If this is happening, it is beneficial to both Pak customers and Indian Traders, as these goods are not charged with tax, hence cheaper.

Pak buys several Indian products indirectly-through Dubai; thus increasing costs many folds.

In such cases, Indian goods illegally coming through Samjhauta Express are good deal for Pak customers.

Pak traders must be sending say clothes and some other products through this train, illegally.

and some Pakistani Mafias must be using this express for drug trafficking for years, as this news suggested

there is good demand for opium in some parts of UP, Rajasthan and Pak produces opium on large scale.

both Pakistani and Indian authorities must be knowing this, if what i am saying is true

Pak inaction fuels smuggling along border: BSF
Yudhvir Rana, TNN Oct 7, 2012, 06.04AM IST

AMRITSAR: Inaction on the part of Pakistan government against notorious smugglers has helped them intensify activities along the Indo-Pak border in Punjab, which is evident from the fact that as against a seizure of 67 kg heroin in 2011, the BSF has recovered 228 kg during the current year.

According to sources, despite the BSF providing information on a few notorious smugglers and their addresses, the Pakistan Rangers and customs officials have failed to take any action against them.

Sources said that 10 Pak-based smugglers -- Waris Khooni from Kasur, Allaha Ditta, Katluhi, Asgar Ali, Narowal, Rana Abid Ali, Shekhupura, Arshad Gurki, Lahore, Bilal Ghurki, Narowal, Jaica Masih, Narowal, Choudhary Fiaz Ali alias Fayaz Bhola, Lahore, Kali Dogar, Kasur, Natha Khan Kharal alias Nathu and Mujahidke Jhugge -- were smuggling heroin, fake Indian currency, arms and ammunition into India via Punjab border.

Pak Rangers even provide tactical support to the smugglers, they said. "The list of smugglers is long, but at present, these 10 smugglers are active in Pakistan. They have established their network and are in touch with their Indian counterparts over mobile phone and internet," said a senior BSF officer.

Most smugglers nabbed by the BSF were couriers while their handlers remain away from the clutches of law due to their influence in Pakistan, sources said.

BSF inspector general (frontier) Aditya Mishra told TOI that despite informing Pak Rangers about the active smugglers in their area, officials across the border didn't inform BSF about action taken against any of them so far. However, the BSF was able to seize a huge quantity of heroin from near the border, he said. "This year, BSF has recovered 75% of the total heroin seizure," he said.

During the early months of 2012, Pakistan smugglers had made maximum smuggling attempts, Mishra said. With the advent of winter, BSF plans to launch a special operation along the Indo-Pak border, apprehending another wave of smuggling attempts during foggy months. Even during harvesting season, smugglers had tried to bring in drugs and fake notes, hiding it in crop bundles, he added.

This one line smells of typical indian blunder. Smugglers and drug dealers are smart enough to evade tracking and capture. Why would they put "Made in Pakistan" seal on it? Secondly, Pakistani heroin is not worth a crap in the market, it is the fine Afghani which lures the commodity market.

Pakistani markings might have been referred to Urdu script on packages or codes
It doesn't say Made in Pak

Don't forget weapons, problems, diseases, hate sms, they all come to india on Samjhota express.

ya. Still we should have shut the dam thing long ago
