Manipur Police Arrest Woman for Alleged Drug Money Transfer to Myanmar
Manipur Police arrested a 56-year-old woman, Zenngaihniang, in Churachandpur district for allegedly channeling over Rs 28.78 lakh suspected to be drug proceeds to beneficiaries in Myanmar. The operation, part of an ongoing narcotics investigation under the NDPS Act, also recovered five cash registers and a cash-counting machine. Separately, police traced a stolen Mahindra Bolero and security forces seized arms and arrested a militant in related operations. Manipur remains a key transit route for drugs from Myanmar due to its porous border.
