In the ongoing campaign to make Punjab a safe state, as directed by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, another breakthrough has been achieved. Recently, the Amritsar Commissionerate Police recovered two 9mm submachine guns and an empty magazine. The police’s efforts foiled an attempt to smuggle illegal weapons. Punjab Director General of Police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav announced this on Sunday.
The recovered weapons were marked “GHAFFAR SECURITY.”
DGP Gaurav Yadav stated that the investigation revealed that the recovered consignment was linked to notorious gangster Gurpreet Singh alias Goldy Dhillon. Weapons are supplied through his network to carry out anti-national and criminal activities in Punjab. The DGP further said that the operation to identify the absconding accused and eliminate the entire network is ongoing.
