The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) on Sunday claimed to have seized three kilograms heroin worth about Rs130 million from a passenger at Islamabad International Airport. According to ANF officials, Kausar Younus, a British national, had concealed the drugs in three bags. Upon suspicion, they said, her luggage was checked, which led to recovery of heroin in large quantity. The woman was taken into custody and a case registered against her. Earlier, on March 4, the ANF had seized 900 gram of ice from a Jeddah-bound passenger at Islamabad International Airport. The arrested drug peddler identified as Shafique son of Nimaz Khan was a resident of Kohat, who was travelling to Jeddah via Abu Dhabi from the new Islamabad Airport.
