In a significant anti-narcotics operation, Tripura Police conducted a successful raid in the Khejur Bagan area on December 10th, leading to the arrest of two drug dealers and the seizure of narcotics worth approximately ₹2 lakh. The operation underscores the state's intensified efforts to combat drug trafficking.
Acting on confidential intelligence, police officers raided the residence of Loknath Roy, where they discovered a substantial quantity of illegal substances, including dry cannabis and heroin. During the operation, Loknath Roy was arrested at the scene. Subsequent interrogation led investigators to his accomplice, Dipankar Roy, who was also apprehended.
Along with the narcotics, police recovered ₹19,800 in cash, believed to be proceeds from drug sales. Both suspects were presented before the court, where authorities sought their remand for further investigation into their potential connections with larger drug trafficking networks.
This operation is part of a broader crackdown on drug-related crimes in Tripura, aligning with Chief Minister's directive to eliminate drug trafficking in the state. The successful raid demonstrates the police force's commitment to this objective and their effectiveness in acting on intelligence to disrupt local drug networks.
The seizure in Khejur Bagan follows a series of successful anti-drug operations across the state, indicating the police force's systematic approach to dismantling drug distribution networks. Law enforcement officials emphasize that such operations will continue as part of their zero-tolerance policy towards drug-related crimes.
The case has been registered under relevant sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, and investigations are ongoing to uncover potential links to larger drug trafficking operations in the region. This operation serves as a warning to drug dealers and reinforces the state's commitment to maintaining public safety and order.
