Airport officials reported on Friday that they had failed to offer a private airline to smuggle contraband to the United Arab Emirates and detained a suspect before he was on board the aircraft.
The authorities said they had also recovered millions of rupees worth of contraband from the Dubai-bound passenger here at Faisalabad International Airport. The man had hidden his one-kilo heroin stash in a secret compartment of the bag.
The arrested suspect, along with the recovered drugs, was handed over to the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF).
