Officers discovered the illicit substance meticulously packed into six separate packets. This seizure is not just a routine drug bust, it reflects the escalating battle against drug trafficking in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Leading the operation was Sub-Division Police Officer Rustamraj Brahma, who was accompanied by the additional police superintendent (Crime)and the officer in charge of the Bokajan police station. Their coordinated efforts resulted in the successful confiscation of the morphine, which is estimated to have a market value of approximately \u20b91.5 crore. This amount underscores the gravity of the situation and the financial implications of drug trafficking in the area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In connection with this significant seizure, the police have arrested two individuals, Kumar Gurung, the driver of the truck, and Chumer Jamir, apprehended at a supermarket in Dimapur.
