Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) seized illegal Indian medicines worth about Tk 20 million during an operation in the Muktijoddha Chattar area of Madhabpur upazila, Habiganj. The operation took place on Tuesday afternoon along the Dhaka–Sylhet highway, where a truck was stopped and searched. The contraband medicines and Indian snacks were found hidden under bricks inside sacks. The seized goods were later handed over to the customs office following legal procedures.
According to a press release issued by Lieutenant Colonel Tanzilur Rahman, commander of the Habiganj Battalion (55 BGB), the operation was part of ongoing efforts to curb cross-border smuggling. He stated that BGB remains firm in protecting the border and preventing illegal trade. Intelligence surveillance has been strengthened in border areas to safeguard domestic industries and maintain economic stability.
The BGB official added that similar operations will continue in the future to ensure tighter control over smuggling activities and to support lawful trade practices.
