All passengers coming from Pakistan and the middle east should be strictly scrutinised as they are very likely to resort to activities of the nature described above.

True 100%, not only drugs, gold smuggling, arms smuggling, iphone smuggling are done by one particular group of people (everyone knows that group), they may be indians, pakistani, bengali and even sri lankans. Extra search should be done for that particular group like in USA there is special counter for these particular group in every airport

High class tourists coming to our land, they do not bring money into the country but illegally earn money and take it out of the country. This is how we are made to believe our tourism industry is flourishing. Death penalty for drug trafficking is a must.

Borrow from judiciary of Singapore, Malasia Tuesday, 21 May 2024 05:37 PM
Our Judiciary can borrow a few pages from Singapore, Malaysia or Saudi Arabia judiciary, where drug peddlers are sentenced to death. We can cut down on the cost of maintaining these criminals.
