In a major breakthrough, the Punjab police cracked a gun house theft case and arrested two persons with weapons and cartridges, an official said on Wednesday.

Taking to his social media handle, the Director General of Police, Punjab, Gaurav Yadav, posted on X, "Amritsar Police proactively cracks a gunhouse theft case and recovers 12 weapons along with 22 cartridges from 2 accused after a hot chase of 1000+ kilometres across 5 states and UTs.

The arrested drug smuggler has been identified as Gurpreet Kumar alias Deep (27) of New Shanti Nagar Bhajwara in Hoshiarpur.

Police teams also impounded a vehicle that was used for supplying heroin.

He said that during questioning, the arrested accused disclosed that they were receiving the heroin consignment from across the border on the instructions of Jasmeet alias Lucky, based in the US. (ANI)
