Acting on a tip off, a special patrol team of BGB conducted a drive in Teknaf’s Jaliapara area early this morning.
"The team seized a plastic bag containing 2.1 kg of Ice and 30,000 pieces of Yaba worth Tk 11.65 crore from a boat anchored on the banks of the Naf River at 3am," said Lt Colonel Sheikh Khalid Md Iftekhar, Commander of BGB’s Teknaf battalion.
