RAJESH SHARMA, EOI, JAIGAON, JUNE 23,2024 : The Jaigaon Police have busted a gang involved in smuggling drugs and intoxicants to Bhutan across the international border. Inspector Paljor Bhutia said on Sunday a large quantity of banned capsules and cough syrups had been seized at the check-post.

One person was arrested, a resident of Ghoksadanga in Cooch Behar but now staying in the Triveni Toll area of Jaigaon.

Based on the interrogation of the arrested person another man who used to arrange the supply of these drugs was also arrested on Sunday.

The wife of the supplier was a Bhutanese citizen. A phone seized from them had given clues about many Bhutanese citizens who used to buy these drugs.
