In a separate operation, Basistha Police arrested Hasna Khatun from the Beharbari area, recovering 532 grams of ganja from her possession. Khatun hails from Dhubri.

Meanwhile, Udalbakra outpost personnel also destroyed 150 litres of illicit country liquor at Bishnu Rabha Path as part of the ongoing crackdown.
Authorities confirmed that all three accused are in custody, and further investigations are underway to uncover the extent of the drug network.
