The Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) on Saturday claimed to have seized banned drugs worth nearly Tk12 crore from Cox’s Bazar’s Teknaf upazila.
Acting on a tip-off, a special patrol team of the BGB conducted a drive in Teknaf’s Jaliapara area early in the morning.
"The team seized a plastic bag containing 2.1kg of Ice and 30,000 pieces of Yaba worth Tk11.65 crore from a boat anchored on the banks of the Naf River at 3am," said Lt Colonel Sheikh Khalid Md Iftekhar, commander of the BGB’s Teknaf battalion.
However, no one has been detained in connection with the seizure, he added.
