The Enforcement Directorate arrested six individuals and froze 1,424 bank accounts in Manipur and Mizoram linked to a cross-border narco-hawala drug and money laundering network. The probe revealed a single ecosystem sending drug proceeds from India to Myanmar. The Northeast's porous border with Myanmar facilitates heroin and methamphetamine trafficking, with cash flowing back to Mizoram border towns. The accused will face special courts under the PMLA.
