A vehicle was found to be carrying illegal substances in the vicinity of the Nagaon Sadar police station. Twenty days ago, the police recovered a car with the registration number AS 01 EX 2621 from Anand Nagar in Nagaon city. Hidden in a secret compartment of the vehicle was heroin worth Rs.3 crore. The police confiscated the heroin after it was proven during a transport department inspection that the car had a secret compartment.
On December 6, the Nagaon police conducted an operation against drugs in Ananda Nagar, which is part of the Nagaon Sadar police station area. During the operation, the police arrested a drug dealer named Anjar Hussain. However, they were unable to seize any drugs during the operation.
After receiving a tip-off about the police operation, Anzar Hussein attempted to destroy the drugs in his possession by burning them in the bathroom. In contrast, the police seized a vehicle with the registration number AS 01 EX 26 21 from Anzar Hussein’s house.
On Friday, the Nagaon police took custody of another accused who was previously in judicial custody. Later, in the presence of a vehicle inspector, the police conducted a raid on the vehicle of the accused parked in the premises of the Sadar police station. During the operation, the police discovered 44 boxes of drugs hidden in a secret compartment under the back seat. The market value of these drugs is estimated to be over three crore rupees, as stated by Jayanta Barua, the additional superintendent of police for the Nagaon crime branch.
