GUWAHATI: In a series of coordinated operations, the Assam Police have seized three consignments of banned contraband worth Rs 25 crore in the international market within a span of 24 hours in Guwahati.

In a late-night operation on Sunday, a joint team comprising the Central Guwahati Police District (CGPD) and East Guwahati Police District (EGPD) intercepted a car in the Jorabat area and apprehended three alleged drug smugglers and seized contraband worth Rs 21 crore.

Confirming the seizure, Commissioner of Police (CP), Guwahati, Diganta Borah, told the press that narcotics were concealed within 198 plastic soap cases, stowed away in secret compartments of the vehicle.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Md. Amir Khan (31), Md. Yakup (29), and Md. Jamir (34), all residents of the Sangaiyumpham Mairenkhun Mayai Lekai area in Manipur’s Thoubal district. They are currently undergoing intensive interrogation and will be presented before a court later today.
