The Ernakulam rural police have strengthened the intelligence network against potential smuggling in of ganja aboard contract carriages being operated from other States for transporting migrant workers here.
Such a carriage with 40 workers from Assam was intercepted at Perumbavur with half-a-kilogram ganja and 10gms of brown sugar based on specific intelligence input on Tuesday.
“We are closely monitoring all movement of goods and people from across the border, especially to Perumbavur. Ganja is mostly smuggled in from the Andhra Pradesh-Odisha border areas,” said K. Karthik, District Police Chief (Ernakulam Rural).
