Ravi Dhaliwal Pathankot, June 30 In a first-of-its-kind seizure, the Pathankot police today recovered 5.75 kg cocaine worth Rs 70 crore in the international market from a Jammu-based smuggler. The development comes as a surprise as the previous seizures used to be of heroin, opium and poppy husk. It also hints at rave parties being held in and around the city, a development being denied by the police. Acting on a tip-off, a police party led by SP (Investigation) Prabhjot Singh Virk set up a check post near Madhopur on the Pathankot-Jammu national highway. The cops signalled a black SUV to halt following which the driver, Amit Sudan, tried to flee but in vain. The police found a large packet of cocaine hidden in a cavity of the vehicle.
