Assam police also apprehended the kingpin of the whole operation which it lured from Nagaland. Undercover officers of Assam police baited the lady kingpin with a lucrative deal and she latched on it hook line and sinker.
She brought the heroin as a payment and the Assam police officers lying in wait nabbed her and her accomplice.
The latest drug bust where Assam Police recovered 2 kilos of heroin in #Karbianglong has interesting backstory.
