The Border Security Force today seized over ten kgs of heroin near Border Out Post Shamaske in Abohar sector of Punjab.
A BSF official said that some suspicious sounds were heard by BSF troops deployed near the international border (IB) early today. However, nothing could be observed due to bad weather, he said.
