In a major operation, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested five persons and seized around 300 LSD stamps, which were allegedly smuggled in as a parcel from abroad through a post office in the city.
Among the arrested were those with criminal antecedents from Alappuzha and Kakkanad. The parcels, reportedly from Germany, initially led to the arrest of the three accused in whose names they were addressed. Subsequent action netted the rest, it is learnt.
As part of the operation, raids were reportedly conducted in Kochi, Kakkanad, Aluva, and Eroor.
