Assam Police made significant progress in their crackdown on illegal activities in the region with a recent operation in Kokrajhar district. Authorities seized a large cache of arms, including an AK-47 and several country-made rifles, from a jungle area. The operation, which took place early on Tuesday morning, led to the arrest of two individuals suspected of being involved in a fake gold smuggling ring.
The seizure of the weapons was the result of specific intelligence gathered by the police. Acting on detailed tip-offs, the police conducted a thorough search of the dense jungle area in Kokrajhar, which has been a hotspot for various illegal activities. The operation, led by senior officers, uncovered the arms hidden in a concealed location, highlighting the extensive nature of the illegal trade in the area.
In addition to the arms, police arrested two suspects who were allegedly involved in a fake gold smuggling racket. The suspects, whose identities have not yet been disclosed, were found to have connections with several other criminal activities in the region. Authorities are investigating their links to both the arms cache and the gold smuggling ring.
The successful operation underscores the ongoing efforts of Assam Police to tackle illegal activities and ensure safety in the region. The recovery of such a significant quantity of arms and the arrest of suspects involved in serious crimes reflect the police’s commitment to addressing crime and maintaining law and order.
Police spokespersons have emphasized that the crackdown on illegal activities will continue with heightened vigilance. They have called for community support in reporting suspicious activities and assisting in maintaining peace and security.
As the investigation proceeds, authorities are expected to provide further details on the scope of the arms trafficking and the broader implications of the fake gold smuggling operation. The recent action is part of a broader initiative by Assam Police to target criminal networks and dismantle their operations effectively.
