Pakistan’s ANF arrests 10 suspects in drug smuggling operations
The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) of Pakistan arrested 10 individuals involved in drug smuggling in operations across the country, said a statement.
A hardened criminal who was on the run for almost 11 years after allegedly committing the murder of a man in Kendrapara town was arrested by local police from the Murshidabad area in West Bengal.
The fugitive identified as Prabodh Das (33), who worked as a mason in an under-construction mini-stadium in Kendrapara town had stabbed to death the construction work supervisor Krushna Chandra Pradhan on 16 April 2020 over a minor altercation.
After committing the murder, he had fled to Bengal and was earning out a living working in construction work. Acting on a tipoff, a special squad of police arrested him from Murshidbad. He was brought under remand and was sent to judicial custody after a local court dismissed his bail application.
