Acting on a tip-off from intelligence agencies, Balarampur police arrested a 35-year-old Nepalese woman, Dil Kumari, and recovered cocaine worth over Rs 7 crore in the international market.
Balrampur superintendent of police Rajesh Saxena said that the woman had to deliver the consignments in Delhi and Maharashtra. Saxena said that prima facie, the woman was just being used, possibly by an international cartel, as a 'drug mule' - a term used for couriers used by international drug traffickers.
Following the arrest of the woman, police have also sought help from the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB).
