A senior Pakistani official has acknowledged that his nation uses drones to deliver drugs in Punjab, India. Drones are used to deliver drugs across the border, and Pakistani agencies are working to stop it, according to Malik Muhammad Ahmad Khan, a close adviser and special assistant to Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for defence. He said this during a discussion in Kasur with Hamid Mir, a senior Pakistani journalist from Pakistan’s Geo News TV channel, “10 kg of heroin were recently connected to two drones and hurled in two separate incidents. Authorities are attempting to halt it. This is the reason they cut off the connections (mobile signals) when they receive intelligence,” Khan told Pakistan’s Geo News.
Khan hails from Kasur, a town in Pakistan’s Punjab province that borders India. He is a member of the Pakistan Muslim League (N), the party in power in the nation, and has three terms as a member of the Punjab Provincial Assembly.
“Rangers are in charge here. Due to border laws, there are some sensitive issues, according to Khan.
“In the past few months, two drones were tethered to a total of 10 kg of heroin and tossed. To stop this, agencies are working. The links (cell signals) are cut off as a result,” according to Khan, who spoke to Pakistan’s Geo News.
From the Pakistani Punjab province’s bordering town of Kasur, Khan is a politician. He was a three-time member of the Punjab Provincial Assembly and is a member of the Pakistan Muslim League (N), which now has power in the nation.
According to Khan, there are some sensitive issues because of border laws.
According to the story citing the Pakistani journalist, Kasur MPA Khan took a lot of heat in Pakistan for admitting this on live television. According to the journalist, Khan has ties to Pakistan’s military leadership. In an effort to restore mobile access, which has been hampered by signal jammers set up to stop cross-border drone movements, and to draw attention to the plight of Kasur villages hit by the floods, Khan has been attempting to engage Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
