The Superintendent of Police, Nomal Mahatta, highlighted the gravity of the situation by revealing that the seized drugs hold an estimated market value of around seven crore rupees in the black market. This staggering figure reflects the substantial impact that such illegal operations could have on the community and the urgent need for continued vigilance.

Adding another layer to this complex operation, law enforcement officials also confiscated a motorcycle believed to be used in the illegal transportation of these narcotics. The investigation has uncovered that the drug consignment was illicitly transported from Vairengte in Mizoram, indicating the broader network involved in this nefarious trade.

Superintendent Mahatta emphasized that the investigation is ongoing, with efforts focused on unraveling the complete network behind this illegal operation. The authorities are determined to identify and apprehend all individuals involved, ensuring that such activities are curtailed effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n
