Instructions Were Being Received Via WhatsApp
Giving details of the operation, Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav said that the initial investigation has revealed extremely shocking findings. The arrested accused were operating directly at the behest of a handler based in Pakistan. This handler would give them instructions via WhatsApp and share information about the pickup points for collecting the consignment of illegal weapons.

The investigation has revealed that this module was active for a long time. The weapons were dropped across the border by drones under the cover of darkness, which these accused would then pick up and deliver further into the Supply Chain. The accused were being guided at every step through Encrypted Chat.
