The Additional Director General of Police for AGTF, Dinesh M.N., stated that this operation was conducted under the supervision of Deputy Inspector General of Police Yogesh Yadav and Additional Police Superintendent Asha Ram Chaudhary.
AGTF teams have been deployed across various cities to capture gangsters, wanted criminals, and smugglers.
On Tuesday, during routine intelligence operations, AGTF teams received credible information regarding three young men possessing a significant quantity of drugs in the Sukher area.
The Sukher police were immediately notified, and a team intercepted three suspicious individuals on Bhairav Gadh Road.
