2 held with drugs at IGIA
NEW DELHI, Oct 23: Two men were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau at IGI airport on Monday morning after they were found to be in possession of 60kg of pseudoephedrine tablets. One of the accused is the son of a deceased Manipur police staffer, hinting at a possible connection with an arrest on October 6 where three passengers, including a constable of Manipur police, were caught at the airport carrying the same drug.“Around 9am on Monday, two passengers who were carrying huge bags came to gate no 3 of terminal 1D. They were identified as Md Akhtar Hussain and Amir Khan. The two were to fly to Guwahati on GoAir flight G2-606 at 10.55 am. The two looked extremely nervous and based on profiling, they were stopped at the gate itself and their bags were checked,” said Hemendra Singh, PRO, CISF.
During checking, the CISF staff recovered a large number of tablets that were later confirmed to be pseudoephedrine, a non-prescription anti-congestant which leads to hyperactivity if taken in large quantity. Hussain is 21-year-old and a resident of Pmojing in Manipur’s Thoubal district. Khan’s father, now deceased, worked in the Manipur police.
