Assam: Police raid uncovers smuggled liquor and contraband on Indo-Bangladesh border

In a significant operation conducted by Golakganj police on the Indo-Bangladesh border, a substantial quantity of illicit goods, including smuggled liquor and contraband was seized. The raid, spearheaded by Assistant Sub-Inspector Sanjeev Kumar Nath under the directive of Officer-in-Charge Debojit Kalita, targeted the Nalia area.

During the operation, a total of 210 bottles of smuggled liquor were confiscated from the Nalia market alongside approximately 30 packets of illicit local liquor. Simultaneously, authorities raided the residence of Manik Chandra Roy in Nalia, leading to the discovery of 1 kg 700 grams of contraband dry. However, Roy managed to evade capture by fleeing the scene purportedly under the guise that the police had departed.

Despite Roy's escape, the police detained an individual named Bipul Roy during the operation, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the illicit activities in the region.

The raid underscores the proactive measures taken by law enforcement agencies to combat smuggling and illegal trade along the Indo-Bangladesh border. Such operations are crucial in maintaining law and order, curbing criminal activities, and safeguarding the welfare of local communities.

The Golakganj police's swift action serves as a deterrent to those involved in illicit trade, sending a clear message that such activities will not be tolerated, and perpetrators will be held accountable under the law.
