The vigilance staff of Collectorate of Customs (Export) at the Air Freight Unit (AFU) at Jinnah Terminal recovered about three kilogram of heroin cleverly concealed in cavities of photo frames. Frames along with other items, such as bed sheets, table cloth and magazines, were recovered from a parcel booked by a courier service M/S A .J. World-wide Services for the UK.
Preliminary investigation with the courier company revealed that the said consignment was reportedly booked by one Ms Bushra, who was accompanied by another person Usman Abbas.
