An FIR has been registered at New Baradari police station in Jalandhar under Section 25/54/59 of Arms Act and Section 29/22-61-85 of NDPS Act.

Giving details of the operation in a press conference, Police Commissioner Swapan Sharma said that the arrests were made based on a tip-off. Jagroop Singh and Bhavjot Singh, who were involved in selling illegal weapons, were apprehended near the accounts office in Railway Colony Jalandhar, where 100 grams of heroin was recovered from their car.

Jagroop Singh confessed the involvement of Ravinder Singh and Anil Gupta, who were later arrested. Interrogation of Ravinder Singh led to the arrest of Bikramjit Singh and more than 1,00,000 narcotic pills and 4,320 capsules were recovered from him.
