The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) announced a significant breakthrough with the arrest of a high-profile Myanmar-based drug trafficker in Delhi. Thancintuang, also known as Chintuang, stood as a major supplier of methamphetamine and heroin, trafficking illicit substances across the Myanmar-India border.
This arrest comes after extensive surveillance and coordination as part of ongoing NCB operations against transnational drug trafficking entities. Thancintuang was known to utilize sophisticated routes through Mizoram, Manipur, Assam, and Tripura, extending into Bangladesh.
The NCB's operations have effectively targeted the entire network, not just isolated drug shipments. Their concerted efforts from 2025 to 2026 have led to multiple arrests and the freezing of financial assets linked to these illegal activities.
