Rawalpindi police arrested five drug suppliers in separate operations across the
city on Monday, 2 November 2026.[1] Rawat Police held one supplier, Civil
Lines Police arrested two suppliers, Dhamial Police arrested one supplier and
Pirwadhai Police apprehended one supplier.[1]
Rawat Police recovered 2.5kg of drugs from its held supplier without the account
specifying the drug type.[1] Civil Lines Police seized 1.6kg of hashish and
250 grams of ice from the two suppliers it arrested.[1] Dhamial Police
recovered 1.3kg of hashish from its arrested supplier, while Pirwadhai Police
seized 1.06 kg of hashish from its apprehended supplier.[1] The separately
specified hashish amounts total 3.96kg, while the 250 grams of ice and the
unspecified 2.5kg are excluded from the cannabis figure.[1]
Police registered separate cases against all the accused.[1] A police
spokesperson said all possible measures were being taken to eradicate the menace
of drugs from society.[1]
The 2.5kg recovered by Rawat Police is described only as drugs, so its type is unknown and it is excluded from the 3.96kg cannabis total.
The 250 grams of ice is a non-cannabis drug and is excluded from the cannabis figure.
The headline total of more than 6.5kg is a combined drugs total that cannot be attributed to cannabis, so only the separately specified 3.96kg of hashish is counted.
No names, ages or further case outcomes for the five accused were published.
Only one outlet account of this event could be opened; no agency statement or second outlet was found for corroboration.
The page carries a lead image captioned only with the headline, which does not establish that it shows this seizure, so no media entry is included.
