Railway police in Ishwardi, Pabna, recovered 725 grams of heroin worth about Tk 7.25 million during a special anti-drug operation on the Dhaka–Rajshahi-bound Dhumketu Express on Sunday, June 7, 2026. The operation was conducted under the direction of Pakshi Railway District Superintendent of Police Md Mehedi Hasan and supervised by Rajshahi Railway Police Station.
