Guwahati: Assam Police arrested two individuals on Sunday and seized yaba tablets worth approximately Rs. 24 crore in the Sribhumi district, located along the inter-state border with Mizoram.

The operation was carried out based on a tip-off, leading to the interception of a truck originating from Mizoram’s Champhai district.

Superintendent of Police Partha Protim Das stated that the vehicle was stopped at the Puwamara bypass, where a thorough search uncovered a concealed compartment containing 80,000 yaba tablets.

Commonly referred to as “crazy medicine” in Thai, yaba is a potent and addictive mixture of methamphetamine and caffeine.

The two arrested individuals, both residents of Assam’s Cachar district in the Barak Valley, are believed to be key operatives within a larger drug trafficking network. SP Das confirmed that legal proceedings are underway to trace the forward and backward linkages of the drug cartel.

This includes identifying supply chains, collaborators, and distribution networks associated with the seized consignment.

According to a senior police official, the estimated street value of the confiscated yaba tablets was determined based on Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) standards, underscoring the scale of the bust.

This incident highlights the increasing prevalence of yaba trafficking in India’s northeastern states, which are often used as transit points for illegal drugs originating from Southeast Asia.

The Champhai district in Mizoram, a region bordering Myanmar, has emerged as a significant entry route for such substances.

The Assam Police’s operation is part of a broader effort to curb drug trafficking in the region.

Authorities are intensifying surveillance and intelligence-sharing mechanisms to dismantle narcotics networks operating along inter-state and international borders.

The arrested individuals are currently in police custody, and further investigations is on.
