Well, Pakistan Coast Guards has destroyed drugs worth nearly 700 million dollars.
To me, these are not drugs being destroyed but its a lost revenue.
Why Pakistan couldn't export it to countries where its halal. We are asking IMF for 1 billion dollar and we gladly destroy 0.7 billion dollar ? Does not make any sense. These whisky bottles are not kind of item that you could not export.
Also, these kind of stunts raises many questions, like:
- how much control the civil / federal govt has on this sector ? OR all control / full powers are with Pakistan Army (Coast Guards)
- Do Army Officers take unique items / valuables or items caught during smuggling . Is there any channel to inform federal govt ?
- Why Army persists to keep Coast Guard under it. Everywhere in the world, the coast guards are under navies. Pakistan is a unique case where it has 3 forces working on the sea. 1) Navy 2) PMSAA (navies version of coast guard) 3) Pakistan coast guard (under Army)
I think, there should be mechanism to involve federal govt input and mechanisms to export items (which can be exported) instead destroying it.
