Navy recovers Kerala cannabis worth over Rs. 42 million in northern waters
A special search operation conducted by the Navy off Mamunai of Veththalakerni, Jaffna on Thursday (08th June 2023) led to the recovery of more than 128 kg (wet weight) of Kerala cannabis adrift in the water.
It is suspected that smugglers might have abandoned the consignment being unable to fetch them into the country, due to constant naval operations. The gross street value of the seized Canabis is believed to be over Rs. 42 million.
The stock of Kerala cannabis has been kept in the naval custody until it is handed over to authorities for onward action.
