Methamphetamine

Methamphetamine in solid and liquid forms was uncovered in the operation by the authorities at Greater Noida.

In the first vehicle, a Renault Kwid with registration number MZ01N-3642, investigators discovered 32.013 kilogrammes of suspected methamphetamine worth Rs 4,14,16,900 and 249 grammes of suspected heroin worth Rs 7,47,000. The driver, Lalthansiama, 26, of Khawmawi, Myanmar, was detained.

Laxmi Singh, the police commissioner for Gautam Buddh Nagar, stated that after months of intelligence gathering, a tip-off was received on Wednesday, leading to the raids. Singh also called the raids the biggest-ever drug bust in Uttar Pradesh.

The NCB described it as the largest-ever methamphetamine seizure in the country as part of "Operation Samudragupt", which targets the maritime trafficking of drugs originating from Afghanistan. 

The Delhi Police arrested the two Afghan nationals and recovered 606 bags of methamphetamine from them.
