Guwahati: In yet another success in its drive against trans-border crimes and narcotics trafficking, troops under Border Security Force, Guwahati Frontier foiled a smuggling bid and apprehended two narcotic smugglers  with prohibited Yaba Tablets cough syrup on the Indo-Bangladesh international border.

Based on reliable input, on Apr 10, a special operation was launched and vigilant BSF troops of BOP Chitrakoot 75 BN BSF apprehended two narcotic smugglers with 1956 Nos Yaba Tablets/prohibited cough syrup and Ganja worth Rs.9,90,000 Lac from a village namely Kayeterbari, Distt – Coochbehar (WB).

The consignment was meant to be smuggled from India to Bangladesh.

The apprehended smuggler and seized items were handed over to the police for further legal action. 

Keeping in view the vulnerability of the border, and heightened activities of drug traffickers and anti-national elements on the border, BSF troops are always on the alert to thwart trans-border crimes including drug trafficking, and are making all-out efforts to prevent the commission of such crimes.
