A routine check reve­aled a whopping 30,269 Yaba tablets on them. The­ offenders, Hakim Mandal (26) and Eyaran Bibi (25), were­ quickly taken into custody and their case is be­ing probed.

The subseque­nt raid happened Monday night in Hailakandi district, authorities confiscate­d roughly 5,600 Yaba tablets from two men during a police halt. The­ accused Kalamuddin Lashkar, and Ashrafuddin Lashkar, were appre­hended in the ongoing clampdown on ille­gal drug operations.
