Once again, major and historic success has been achieved in the security of Indian maritime borders and the operations being conducted against anti-national forces. In a terrifying and filmy style, Indian security agencies foiled the nefarious designs of terrorists and drug smugglers near the international maritime border in the Arabian Sea of Gujarat. In a joint and precise operation by Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Indian Coast Guard (ICG), five Pakistani smugglers were caught in the middle of the sea with weapons and huge quantity of narcotics. During this sensational action, the video of security forces encircling smugglers and the warning ‘You are surrounded from all sides’ has once again proved the alertness of security agencies across the country.
Perfect coordination of Gujarat ATS, CIA and ICG: The biggest joint operation conducted in the Arabian Sea
Giving proof of the strength of the Indian security structure, this time the intelligence agencies had received strong input that a huge consignment of illegal narcotics and weapons was being sent from Pakistan to the Indian border through the Arabian Sea. As soon as this sensitive information was received, Gujarat ATS, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Indian Coast Guard (ICG) prepared a joint and secret strategy without wasting a moment. Modern surveillance aircraft and fast interceptor ships were deployed to keep a close watch on the activities of smugglers’ nefarious ships and boats in the middle of the sea. As soon as the suspected boat of Pakistani smugglers reached near Indian waters, security forces surrounded them from all sides and gave a strict ultimatum to surrender.
‘You are surrounded from all sides’: Pakistani smugglers kneel down in fear
When Indian security forces surrounded Pakistani smugglers amid the waves of the Arabian Sea, the scene there was no less than a film action sequence. Coast Guard forces and ATS commandos equipped with modern weapons gave a stern warning through loudspeakers that ‘You are surrounded from all sides, stop your boat and surrender without any resistance.’ Finding themselves surrounded by countless Indian ships and helicopters monitoring the sky, the Pakistani smugglers lost their senses and were completely unsuccessful in escaping. The security forces took prompt action and took all five Pakistani nationals into safe custody and conducted a thorough search of their boat, in which illegal drugs and objectionable materials worth crores of rupees in the international market were recovered.
