Jharsuguda: The Jharsuguda district police have successfully dismantled an inter-state narcotics and arms syndicate, resulting in the arrest of three individuals. A substantial quantity of contraband ganja, a firearm, live ammunition, and Rs 4.87 lakh in cash—believed to be proceeds from illegal trade—were seized, police confirmed on Thursday.
Details of the Arrests
The accused have been identified as Md. Kamal alias Kamaluddin (32) and Suresh Singh (30), both residents of Bandhabahal, and Narendra Prasad Bais (22), a supplier originally from Singrauli district in Madhya Pradesh, currently residing in Mahadevpada in Banharpali.
