In a significant development in Bihar, the leader of an inter-district theft gang has been apprehended with 5.38 kilograms of ganja. Police received a tip-off about the gang leader's involvement not only in theft but also in drug trafficking. Acting swiftly on the intelligence, law enforcement laid a trap and successfully arrested the accused red-handed.

While the identity of the arrested kingpin has not yet been publicly disclosed, police sources indicate that he was wanted in connection with numerous theft and robbery incidents across several districts. Multiple cases have been registered against him in various police stations. Authorities believe that this arrest will significantly disrupt inter-district theft operations and the ganja trafficking racket. Police are currently interrogating the suspect to uncover other members of the gang and their extensive network.

Preliminary investigations reveal that the gang primarily targeted deserted houses and shops. For ganja smuggling, they utilized routes less frequented by police surveillance. The seized ganja is estimated to be worth millions of rupees. Police have confiscated the illicit substance and registered a case under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. This arrest is being hailed as a major success for the police, with officials expressing optimism that it will lead to a reduction in crime in the region. Raids are ongoing to apprehend other members of the gang and further investigate their criminal activities.
