The National Crime Bureau (NCB) conducted a successful intelligence-led operation in Guwahati, resulting in the seizure of 53.937 kg of methamphetamine, valued at approximately Rs 43 crore. The operation aimed to thwart a major drug trafficking attempt originating from Myanmar into the North-Eastern region of India.
Acting on credible intelligence inputs, NCB officers intercepted two trucks carrying the illicit substance. The traffickers had ingeniously concealed the narcotics within specially fabricated cavities located in the fuel tanks of both vehicles, a clandestine method designed to evade detection by law enforcement agencies.
The operation led to the arrest of two drug traffickers, both residents of Bishnupur, Manipur. This marks the successful apprehension of individuals involved in smuggling narcotics across international borders. The NCB Guwahati unit, during the special "Absconder Drive Fortnight," also apprehended six accused individuals wanted in various Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) cases. These apprehended individuals hail from various states, including Assam, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Manipur, and Tripura.
The successful operation and arrests represent a significant step towards dismantling drug trafficking networks and bringing individuals who evade the legal process to justice.
