The Police in Jigawa
State has intercepted a vehicle laden with 10 cartons containing 5,000 packets
of Tramol capsules along the Maigatari border town of Niger Republic.
According to reports, the
drug which is listed among the prohibited substances was arrested when the
Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS, allegedly alerted the police that a Toyota
Corolla brand of vehicle on top speed had refused to be stopped and checked at
the border check point.
The police Public
Relations Officer, DSP Abdu Jinjiri, told newsmen that the driver who was the
only occupant after a long pursuit by the police abandoned the vehicle and took
to his heels.
He said the substance,
estimated at over N3 million, had been already handed over to the National Drug
Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, in Dutse alongside the alleged culprit for
prosecution.
