 Tripura Police on Sunday arrested three drug peddlers and seized 364 Spasmo-Proxyvon Capsules from their possession from Heritage park area.

The police stated that they received a crucial tip-off regarding three drug peddlers, on the basis of the tip-off police personnel from New capital complex (NCC) police station laid a trap a and arrested three drug peddlers. During the search police found 364 Spasmo-Proxyvon Capsules worth Rs 14,000. The three arrested drug peddlers have been identified as Pradyut Debnath, Kishore modak and Paritosh Biswas all of the residents of Shyamali Bazaar area.

A specific case has been registered against them. They were produced before the court on Monday, said police. Some young people are taking their lives to the brink of extinction, like heroin and brown sugar. Being addicted to drugs, they are also involved in various anti-social activities. Unable to raise money for drugs, some are organizing thefts at various homes and shops, which has led to an increase in thefts.

However, Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha has called on Tripura to get rid of drugs. Police are seizing crores worth of heroin, brown sugar, cannabis (ganja) and arresting traffickers, but the real kingpins remain out of reach, which is why the state is not moving towards a drug-free state despite so many anti-drug campaigns.
