KHYBER: FC North and Customs authorities on Sunday claimed to have foiled an attempt to smuggle weapons from Afghanistan into Pakistan.

Recovered weapons include three rifles, two pistols and 12,000 bullets of pistols and repeaters. The drivers were arrested and handed over to the Customs for further action.
