| 2023-05-15 |
| [OneIndia] In its biggest recovery ever, Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) seized drugs worth Rs 15,000 crore in a joint operation with Indian Navy. About 2500 kg of drugs has been seized off India's western coast and a suspected Pak national Ah hah! But is he a member of one of Pakistan’s pet jihadi or other groups out to pollute India’s youth, or your usual narco-gangster feeding a known market? apprehended, the NCB said on Saturday, calling it the largest seizure of methamphetamine in the country.The drug cache had started on a mother ship -- a large vessel that distributes narcotics to various boats during its journey -- from the Makran coast around Pakistain and Iran, it said. As many as 134 sacks of suspected methamphetamine, a Pak national, the intercepted boat and some other items salvaged from the ship were brought to Mattancherry Wharf in Kochi in Kerala and handed over by the Navy to the Narcotics Control Bureau, it said. ''NCB has initiated the seizure procedures and the primary analysis is that all of the packets contain methamphetamine of high purity. ''As the seizure procedures are still underway, the exact quantity of methamphetamine recovered is not clear yet. However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... from the number of packets recovered, we estimate it to be around 2,500 kg,'' the NCB said Related: Kerala: 2023-05-09 NIA raids continue across several locations in Jammu and Kashmir, separate case in Tamil Nadu Kerala: 2023-05-05 Why India is weary of letting the Islamic State returnees back on its soil Kerala: 2023-05-03 Understanding radicalisation in Kerala and how seeds were sown 30 years back |
