An ANF official said that acting on a tip-off, the force’s team at the airport intercepted a passenger, identified as Muhammad Arshad, a resident of Gujrat.
During a search of his luggage, the team recovered around 6.8 kilograms of heroin from secret compartments.
The accused was planning to take off for Spain via Dubai. The team also nabbed another passenger from the airport, identified as Mushtaq Ahmed for suspicious acts.
