In a coordinated operation by the Barmer police and the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in the Sedwa area near the border police station, authorities uncovered a synthetic drug manufacturing factory on Wednesday. The raid resulted in the seizure of a substantial quantity of illegal MD drugs along with manufacturing equipment, chemicals, powders, electric scales, generators, and other related items.
Two individuals, identified as Mangilal Bishnoi and Birju Jayendra Shukla, were arrested during the operation. Police revealed that materials worth Rs 40 lakh were confiscated from the site. These seized items had the capacity to produce MD drugs with an estimated market value of Rs 100 crore.
Further investigation has led authorities to identify ten suspects connected to the drug manufacturing and trafficking network, with links traced to Mumbai. The case is ongoing as police continue their probe.
