The Border Security Force (BSF) recovered around 570 grams of heroin from a farming field in Kilche village in the Ferozepur district.

"During the search at about 6.15 am in the early hours, the troops successfully recovered 1 packet (gross weight: 570 grams) of suspected heroin from a farming field in village Kilche of district Ferozepur," it said.

As per the release, the narcotics were wrapped with yellow adhesive tape and a metal ring and a small torch were found attached to the packet.

"Reliable input from the BSF intelligence wing and timely action by diligent BSF troops foiled yet another illicit attempt at drug smuggling from across the border," it added.
