In a major anti-narcotics operation, the Amguri police in Bijni, Chirang, successfully apprehended a smuggler in Patalmari on Tuesday night. The accused, Sattar Ali, a 35-year-old resident of Patalmari, was caught red-handed by a team of police officials led by Pomkhedi Bijni Sub-Divisional Police Officer Prasenjit Das, Amguri Police Station in-charge Pankaj Dal, and 2nd officer Prince Buragohain.
According to sources, the police had received specific intelligence about the smuggling activities and strategically planned the arrest. As Sattar Ali attempted to leave his house with a bag containing 3 kilograms 100 grams of ganja, he was intercepted by the law enforcement team. The accused, along with the seized contraband, was taken to the Amguri police station for further investigation and legal proceedings.
The Chirang district police’s proactive efforts to curb illegal drug trafficking continued to bear fruit, as the crackdown on Sattar Ali’s operation highlights the authorities’ determination to dismantle the complex network of drug cartels. The police have assured that stringent action will be taken against those involved in the illegal drug trade, emphasizing the need for the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities related to drug trafficking.
Further investigation is expected to reveal more leads into the supply chain and potential accomplices, as well as the broader connections to larger drug networks operating in the area. As the authorities continue their probe, they urge residents to cooperate and provide any relevant information that could aid in the fight against drug trafficking. With Sattar Ali’s arrest, the Amguri police have sent a strong message that the illegal drug trade will no longer be tolerated, and those involved will face severe consequences.
