The surprising aspect of this narcotics haul is that Methamphetamine, commonly known as Ice, typically comes in commercial quantities of 50 grams, unlike heroin, which is commercialised in 250-gram quantities. This suggests a high potency, possibly produced in a laboratory.

The accused Simranjeet Singh will be presented in local for police custody, facilitating further questioning to unveil additional details.

Further scrutiny into the landing site indicated coordination efforts to determine the destination and pickup of drug shipments. The recipient of the seized narcotics, the intended destination (whether within Amritsar or beyond), and the subsequent receiver will be revealed through the ongoing investigation. The involvement of Ice, a potent drug, adds complexity to the case, hinting at potential external handlers. As the investigation continues, more revelations may come to light, shedding further insight into the intricate web of cross-border drug trafficking.
