In a significant blow to drug traffickers, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has seized 4,317 kg of poppy straw loaded in a triple-axle lorry and arrested three suspects in Ranchi.
The NCB also seized a new Mahindra Thar vehicle on Thursday, and efforts are underway to apprehend other individuals involved in these cases, officials said.
According to NCB officials, lab tests confirmed that the seized opium is of the highest quality.
Thursday’s seizure follows previous successes, including the confiscation of 103.4 kg of high-quality opium from a dumping yard on June 12 in Ranchi and 802 kg of poppy straw on May 31 from a remote area in Khunti district.
Officials told ANI that the NCB is committed to dismantling the entire gang involved in drug trafficking and disrupting their financial networks.
Further investigation is ongoing to identify and bring to justice all those involved in these illicit activities, officials said.
