The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) made a significant drug seizure on Wednesday at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, confiscating 400 kg of hydroponic ganja from a woman's luggage.

Officials intercepted the passenger based on intelligence inputs and found the contraband estimated to be worth Rs 40 crore hidden in her two check-in bags.

The investigation uncovered that the woman procured the ganja in Bangkok and opted for a travel route through Dubai to dodge suspicion. The NCB is now working to identify her contacts in Thailand and India.
