QUETTA: The customs department on Monday seized 72,000 kilograms of urea fertiliser worth Rs300 million.
According to customs officials, urea was found under other goods loaded in two trucks which were stopped at a customs post in the Darkhashan area for checking.
“The trucks were on their way to Afghanistan via Chaman,” the officials said, adding that drivers were arrested and handed over to Levies personnel for further investigation.
A few days ago the customs department had recovered 20,000kg of urea at the same check-post. In another raid, it seized two non-custom paid cars smuggled from Afghanistan.
