A joint anti-drug operation by the Pirgacha upazila administration and police in Rangpur led to the arrest of a drug dealer with cannabis at Pirgacha railway station on Saturday afternoon. The arrested man, Mohammad Roni, 32, from Guabari village, was caught red-handed while selling cannabis during a mobile court operation led by Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) Debashish Basak.
During the search, authorities seized 14 packets of cannabis and 600 taka in cash from Roni. Locals alleged that he had been openly selling cannabis in the station area for a long time. After admitting his crime, the mobile court sentenced him to one month of imprisonment and fined him 500 taka under the Narcotics Control Act. He was later sent to Rangpur Central Jail.
Officials stated that such anti-drug operations will continue in the public interest and reaffirmed a zero-tolerance policy against narcotics in Pirgacha.
