Kabul: Taliban officials in Afghanistan's southeastern Kandahar province said that border guards have arrested two smugglers who wanted to smuggle weapons to Pakistan.

The border guards of the Taliban government arrested the smugglers on the Chaman crossing of Spin Boldak district of Kandahar province on Mar 13.

Security officials in the district told Khaama Press that the weapons include heavy and small American rifles of various types.

They said that the smugglers were in a relatively large number but they could succeed arresting only two of them.

Local officials said they are still not sure from where the weapons were brought.

Investigation into the incident is currently going on.
