4.8 Kg of cannabis hidden in a water purifier in Mumbai has been seized by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Friday.
Those illegal substances were supposed to be sent to Australia through a courier service, and NCB arrested two people in this connection, an NCB official said on Sunday.
During the interrogation of the two accused, they found that the courier authorization owner is also involved in drug trafficking, he said. Without even being verified the courier agent used to send parcels of the consignor’s identity and had also sent several of such parcels many times on the instructions of the “main receiver”, the official said.
Following this NCB has registered a case and is conducting further investigation into the matter.
