I<\/span>n a major crackdown on the illegal narcotics trade, law enforcement officers in the metropolitan area have made a significant heroin seizure<\/a> valued at approximately 12 crore rupees. This substantial bust underscores the relentless efforts by authorities to combat the scourge of drugs in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n The heroin was seized in front of the APSC (Assam Public Service Commission) office in Guwahati, hinting at the audacity of drug traffickers to operate in proximity to government institutions. The narcotics were found in a Wagoner with the registration number AS 01 FN 0733. This vehicle became the center of a pivotal moment in the ongoing war against illegal substances in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n Approximately 1.5 kilograms of heroin were being transported by two individuals who were apprehended in the act. The suspects, identified as Jamal Ali and Selimuddin, were taken into custody by the STF (Special Task Force), marking a significant victory for law enforcement.<\/span><\/p>\n The intelligence for this operation was gathered over time, with the STF being aware of a large quantity of heroin being trafficked from Tripura and Manipur. This successful operation was led by the Inspector-General of the STF, Partha Sarathi Mahanta, and the Additional Superintendent of Police, Kalyan Kumar Pathak, whose strategic planning and execution led to the seizure.<\/span><\/p>\n The seizure of such a large quantity of heroin not only disrupts the supply chain of narcotics but also sends a strong message to those involved in the trade. The swift action of the STF has highlighted the risks and consequences that drug traffickers face when attempting to ply their illicit trade in the area.<\/span><\/p>\n The arrest of Jamal Ali and Selimuddin is a testament to the meticulous surveillance and intelligence-gathering efforts of the STF. The movement of drugs across state lines presents a complex challenge to law enforcement, and this bust demonstrates the effectiveness of cross-jurisdictional cooperation in tackling such issues.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In a major crackdown on the illegal narcotics trade, law enforcement officers in the metropolitan area have made a significant heroin seizure valued at approximately 12 crore rupees.
