The drug recovery in 2020 witnessed almost a three-fold rise compared to 2019 (228 kilograms). BSF soldiers also shot dead eight drug smugglers and intruders in separate encounters in 2020 and arrested 13 of them. “The number of intruders trying to cross over, came down last year as we reacted swiftly,” said a senior BSF official. In 2020 in a humanitarian gesture, the force handed over six Pakistanis to the Pakistan Rangers after they had inadvertently crossed the IB. “With almost every drug consignment, weapons too are sent along. The most common weapon is a .30 bore pistol,” said a BSF officer.

The arrestees have been identified as Amandeep Singh alias Machher of Ferozepur, Jaswinder Singh alias Jassu of Kokri Klan village, Balraj Singh and Arun Sarwan of Moga. They were booked under Sections 21, 61 and 85 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and 25 (6) (7), 54 and 59 of the Arms Act at the Mehna Police Station. Moga District Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Dhruman H Nimbale said they arrested Amandeep with a Beretta M9 pistol, four live cartridges and 300gm of heroin. Arsh Dala contacted Amandeep through Facebook, where he lured and manipulated him to get his work done. Later, Arsh told him to collect the Beretta pistol from Jaswinder Singh. “During investigation, Jaswinder revealed that apart from Amandeep, he had given two more Beretta pistols and 10 live cartridges to Balraj Singh and Arun Sarwan of Moga. “Acting on the information, we arrested Balraj and Sarwan with two pistols, 10 live cartridges and a Mahindra Scorpio SUV,” he added. “Preliminary investigation reveals that Arsh had provided these weapons to his associates. We are trying to figure out how and from where he got these weapons,” said the SSP. Police said Arsh, along with KTF’s Canada-based ‘chief’ Nijjar, is co-conspirator behind targeted killing in Punjab, including murder of Dera Sacha Sauda follower and firing on a priest in Nijjar’s village. Besides, he was also the prime accused in murder of gangster Sukha Lamme and a trader in Moga. Currently, he is hiding in Surrey city in British Columbia of Canada.
