The force then transferred all 123 detainees to the custody of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA). The FIA, Pakistan’s primary federal law enforcement agency, will now lead the subsequent criminal investigation and initiate formal legal proceedings.
The spokesperson reiterated the force’s unwavering mandate. The Pakistan Coast Guard will maintain and intensify such border and coastal surveillance operations on a regular schedule. The stated objective is to curb transnational human smuggling networks actively.
