New Delhi, May 14: NCB and Indian Navy have got a big success in Kerala. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) seized drugs (2500 kg of methamphetamine drugs) worth Rs 12,000 crore by conducting a joint operation with the Navy near the Kerala coast on Saturday. According to the information, this is the first time that such a huge consignment of methamphetamine drugs has been found in India. A suspected Pakistani national has been detained along with the consignment. According to sources, the drugs were brought from Afghanistan to Kerala by sea.

According to NCB officials, about 2500 kg of methamphetamine, 500 kg of heroin and 529 kg of charas have been recovered under the operation. Notably, in February 2022, a joint team of NCB and Indian Navy seized 529 kg of hashish, 221 kg of methamphetamine and 13 kg of heroin off the coast of Gujarat, which were brought here from Balochistan and Afghanistan. In October 2022 also, 200 kg of high-grade heroin was recovered from an Iranian boat off the coast of Kerala. Six Iranian drug smugglers were arrested in this raid.

According to sources, Operation Samudragupt was launched under the leadership of NCB Director General Sanjay Kumar Singh. The NCB team shared information with drug law enforcement agencies like DRI, ATS Gujarat and NTRO (Intelligence Agency), the intelligence wing of the Indian Navy. In this sequence, intelligence was received about the movement of a mother ship carrying a large amount of methamphetamine from the Makran coast.

Mother ships are large ocean-going ships, which are used to transport drugs in large quantities. The NCB team shared the information related to this with the Indian Navy. After this, a ship of the Indian Navy was deployed in the surrounding area. Based on the input, the Navy had intercepted a large ship going into the sea. 134 sacks of suspected methamphetamine were recovered from this vessel. Apart from this, a person aboard a speed boat was caught, who is suspected to be a Pakistani citizen.
