Tripura police have detained three suspects after uncovering 80,000 yaba tablets during a raid.
Tripura police announced the arrest of three men following a raid that uncovered 80,000 yaba tablets, a high‑potency methamphetamine commonly used in the region. The operation, conducted by the state’s anti‑drug squad, was part of a broader effort to curb the trafficking of yaba across the northeastern border.
The seized tablets were found in a storage facility in Tripura, though officials have not yet disclosed the exact location. Authorities say the suspects were involved in the distribution network that supplies the drug to local markets.
Police officials stated that the bust is a significant blow to the drug trade in the state and that further investigations are underway to trace the origin and distribution channels of the seized yaba.
