In a major security breakthrough, Indian security forces have intercepted a dangerous weapons consignment near the sensitive India-Pakistan border in Amritsar district. The recovery included sophisticated assault rifles that have raised alarm bells among security agencies.
The seized arsenal contained:
- Two AK-47 assault rifles
- Two pistols
- Four magazines
- 60 rounds of ammunition
The discovery was made during a joint operation by Punjab Police and Border Security Force (BSF) personnel in the border area of Rajatal village, located in the Ajnala sub-division. The weapons were carefully concealed in a specially designed cavity, indicating sophisticated smuggling tactics.
Security agencies have launched a comprehensive investigation to trace the source of these weapons and identify the intended recipients. The proximity to the international border has intensified concerns about potential cross-border smuggling networks attempting to destabilize the region.
This significant seizure comes at a time when border security remains at maximum alert. The recovery of AK-47 rifles—weapons favored by terrorist organizations—has particularly worried intelligence agencies monitoring border activities.
Local residents have expressed shock at the discovery, with many praising the alertness of security forces in preventing these weapons from reaching dangerous hands. The area has been cordoned off for further forensic examination and search operations.
