In a recent crackdown on drug trafficking, Sikkim Police intercepted 30-year-old Roshan Gupta at the Melli Checkpost while he was traveling from Siliguri to Jorethang. Gupta, a resident of Nayabazar in Soreng district, was traveling in a taxi when police carried out a routine search. During the search, the police discovered 108 strips of Winspasmo Forte capsules, totaling 864 capsules, concealed in his bag.
These capsules, known for being abused recreationally, are classified as controlled substances under the Sikkim Anti-Drugs Act (SADA). Gupta was arrested, and a case has been filed against him at the Melli Police Station. The authorities are now investigating the source and intended destination of the contraband.
