In a major breakthrough against inter-state drug trafficking, Jalandhar Rural Police have successfully dismantled a well-organized narcotics supply chain operating between Bihar and Punjab. The operation resulted in the seizure of large quantities of contraband and the arrest of four individuals, shedding light on a sophisticated trafficking network that utilized railway routes and employed women carriers to evade detection.
The arrested individuals include Pooja Kumari (24) and Babita Devi alias Babbo (29), both from Nawabganj, Purabtola, along with Arnav Kumar Jaiswal alias Lallan (24), a resident of village Kursheila, all hailing from Katihar district in Bihar. Additionally, Mohit Dhanda alias Mohit (24), from village Chuharwali in Punjab, was apprehended in a separate operation while in possession of heroin.
The trafficking network exploited strategic routes and was found to be using female carriers to transport drugs discreetly. Through meticulous planning, the criminals managed to operate under the radar until the police managed to disrupt their operations.
In this coordinated operation, police uncovered a vast network and have seized a significant amount of heroin, which was set to be distributed in Punjab and other neighboring regions.
Jalandhar Rural Police have been relentless in their fight against drug trafficking, with a strong commitment to breaking up these dangerous networks that exploit vulnerable individuals. The arrested suspects will be produced in court, with further investigations underway to identify additional members of the trafficking ring and disrupt the operation entirely.
This seizure marks a major victory for the Jalandhar Rural Police and sends a strong message to inter-state drug traffickers that their activities will not go unnoticed. The police continue to call for public cooperation in reporting suspicious activities to ensure that such networks are eradicated.
