A police team from the CIA staff, led by sub-inspector Jassa Singh, arrested a man suspected of smuggling arms from across the border in a late-night operation near Tarn Taran. The accused, identified as Daler Singh, a resident of Gehri village, was taken into custody after a routine patrol intercepted him on a motorcycle near Bir Baba Buddha Sahib.

A case has been registered at the Chabal police station under Sections 25, 27, and 59 of the Arms Act, which deal with the illegal possession and trafficking of weapons.
