Rs 5,500 to lob a grenade, Rs 7,500 to shoot: How Punjab’s drug-hit youth are becoming cut-price hitmen
Youngsters in Punjab are being recruited as killers for meager sums, often as little as Rs 5,500, fueled by drug addiction and unemployment. Foreign handlers, including Pakistan’s ISI, exploit vulnerable youth with false promises of money and visas, leading to low-cost, high-impact criminal operations.
