Acting on intelligence concerning the illicit trafficking of narcotics, a special operation was executed in Boko, Assam during the early hours of May 9th, 2024, spearheaded by Additional Superintendent of Police (Addl SP) Kalyan Pathak. 

During the course of the operation, law enforcement intercepted an Alto vehicle suspected of involvement in narcotics transportation. Upon closer inspection, authorities discovered concealed within the steering wheel column a cache of illicit substances. A total of 30 packets containing heroin, weighing approximately 420 grams, were seized, underscoring the significant volume of contraband intercepted.

Subsequent investigations led to the apprehension of two individuals believed to be associated with the illicit drug trade. The accused individuals, identified as Kabel Uddin (33 years old) and Sabur Ali (52 years old), hail from Goroimari village under the jurisdiction of Barpeta Police Station.
