In a major operation in Assam, police apprehended two notorious women drug peddlers and seized a significant quantity of illegal substances and prohibited items. The raids, conducted in the region, resulted in the recovery of 7.292 kilograms of suspected ganja, 355 bottles of Indian-made foreign liquor (IMFL) marked “Sale for Meghalaya Only,” and 30 pre-rolled COnGO cones used for ganja consumption.
Additionally, 44 ultra-thin rolling papers, Rs. 3,910 in cash, and three mobile phones were confiscated. The recovered items suggest the suspects’ involvement in facilitating drug abuse and trafficking in the area.
The arrested women have been identified as Januka Sonari (32) and Niyati Sarkar (58), both believed to be key players in the region’s organized drug trade. Authorities are continuing their investigations to dismantle the broader network linked to these individuals, aiming to curb the growing drug menace in the area.
