Two women drug peddlers arrested from Agartala Railway station with large quantities of Ganja

In a joint operation, the Government Railway Police (GRP) and the Railway Protection Force (RPF) at Agartala Railway station arrested two female drug peddlers and seized large quantities of dry Cannabis (Ganja).

Giving details, OC of GRP station of Agartala Railway station, Tapash Das said that two women were arrested while they were carrying 23 kg– 660 grams of dry Ganja, concealed in eight packets inside two trolley bags. Preliminary interrogation revealed that they were en-route to Chennai via Deoghar with the narcotics consignment.

Following the seizure, a case has been registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, (NDPS Act) at the Agartala GRP Police Station.

Authorities suspect that more individuals may be involved in the case, and further arrests are likely as the investigation progresses.

He said that female drug peddlers identified as Minakki Debna aka Monali (30), a resident of Santirbazar area of South Tripura district and Sabina Bibi (32), a resident Jalpaiguri, West Bengal  will be produced before a local court on Monday.

During questioning, the arrested women disclosed that the seized ganja could have fetched a market value of approximately Rs 7, 93,100 in Chennai, where it is reportedly sold at Rs 35,000 per kilogram.

Authorities have intensified surveillance at railway stations and transit points in view of increasing attempts to smuggle narcotics across state borders.

Earlier on July 8, in another joint operation, the Government Railway Police (GRP) and Railway Protection Force (RPF) apprehended three alleged drug peddlers at Agartala Railway Station and seized 3.24 kg dry cannabis concealed in a large carry bag (pith bag).

The contraband was reportedly being transported to Chennai. Acting on a tip-off, the security personnel intercepted the suspects during routine surveillance at the station. Upon inspection, they discovered the tightly packed cannabis hidden in a single packet within the bag.
