ED Raids Seven Locations Across Tripura, Uncover Drug Trafficking Ties in Tripura
First Published: 10th January, 2025 13:46 IST
These raids highlight the rising concern over Tripura's positioning as a crucial transit point for illegal drug transport.
In a decisive move against financial misconduct and drug trafficking, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) launched coordinated raids at seven locations across Tripura on Friday. The operation, which commenced early in the morning, involved a substantial presence of security forces to maintain order during the extensive search and seizure efforts.
Officials indicated that these raids are part of a broader investigation into money laundering and the illicit drug trade plaguing the region. ED teams are currently examining documents, digital records, and other evidence pertinent to dismantling a suspected network of drug traffickers and financial offenders.
While the specific locations targeted remain undisclosed, sources suggest that urban areas such as Agartala, Nandannagar, and Natunnagar are under the spotlight due to their established roles in drug trafficking activities.
These raids highlight the rising concern over Tripura’s positioning as a crucial transit point for illegal drug transport between neighbouring states and countries. Authorities face increasing pressure to combat organized crime syndicates operating within the region.
Further updates on this developing operation are expected as the ED continues its investigations.
