And where and how can it be caught if it went on a specific route and ports where no inspection is "necessary"!
Do not be stupid, many ways are possible.
Just think about the International drug trafficking, very few shipments are caught while the rest is flooding the world with drugs every day of the year.
Well if you knowledgeable enough to read the link...........Read the ReD words and you will have all the answer of your stupid questions.... Intelligence Agency don't work on drugs they have better more work to do other then drugs
FIVE days before the North Korean vessel mv Ku Vol San was due to dock at Kandla, Russian intelligence authorities had alerted Indian officials about the sensitive nature of the cargo it carried. The ship was bound for Malta via Singapore, Kandla and Karachi.
The Government instructed the Department of Revenue Intelligence and the Research and Analysis Wing to mount a surveillance operation in the Arabian Sea. As soon as the ship docked at Kandla on June 18, ostensibly to offload 13,000 tonnes of sugar meant for a private Indian trader, the Customs authorities searched it. They faced resistance from the 44-member crew, and the initial search yielded nothing incriminating. The authorities had almost decided to let the ship and its crew off as the search had threatened to explode into a diplomatic disaster. It was then that Russian intelligence came up with specific information about the location of the suspected cargo; it was hidden in the ship's belly.
The cargo consisted of 148 boxes described as machinery and water-refining equipment. A team of senior Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) scientists, missile experts and military intelligence officers reached Kandla to examine the boxes. It turned out that the consignments were materials required for the production of tactical surface-to-surface missiles with a range of 300 km. They included fuel propulsion systems and hardware for the fabrication and launching of the missiles. According to a statement from the Ministry of External Affairs, the cargo included "special material and equipment, components for guidance system, blueprints, drawings and instruction manuals for the production of such missiles." On interrogation, the crew admitted that the cargo was meant for a Pakistani public sector company engaged in a missile development programme for the Army. It was also ascertained that the address in Malta, to which the boxes were purportedly destined, was fictitious.
This is answer of your question, modulus of operandi.
It appears strange that a ship with sensitive cargo bound for Pakistan should dock at an Indian port, especially when the two countries were engaged in a conflict. Informed sources told Frontline that apparently neither the owner of the ship nor the key members of the crew were aware of the real nature of the cargo. The commercial vessel was on a routine run from Pyongyang to Malta, with stops at Kandla and Karachi, and was chosen to carry the cargo in the belief that it would not arouse any suspicion. The plan was to offload the cargo on the high seas off Karachi, for which arrangements had been made, these sources said.
Care to tell the difference between PAK and NK missiles ??
