RAWALPINDI: An Afghan national, suspected of being a facilitator of Afghanistan’s intelligence agency, National Directorate of Security, has been apprehended by Frontier Corps (FC) Balochistan according to army spokesperson on Friday.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), FC Balochistan, along with intelligence agencies, conducted intelligence-based operations in Musa Colony and Sangan areas of the province.
In Sangan, FC recovered weapons and ammunition, including explosives and communication equipment, according to the ISPR statement.
“In a de-weaponising campaign, residents of Sibbi, Talli and Dera Murad Jamali voluntarily deposited their illegal weapons with the FC,” the statement added.
The actions were held under Operation Raddul Fasaad, which was launched by the Pakistan Army earlier this year in collaboration with paramilitary and civilian law enforcement agencies to eliminate terrorism from the country.
