Mumbai: The Narcotics Control Bureau of Mumbai has arrested two persons and also seized a parcel containing drugs at the Lonavala Post Office in Pune district.
The postal parcel, sent from Canada two days ago, was opened by the NCB sleuths to reveal 1.03 kg curated marijuana and later another 74 gms of the same drug was seized from a building in Nerul, Navi Mumbai, an official said here on Sunday.
According to investigations, the drugs consignment valued at around Rs 50-55 lakh in the international market, was destined for sale in Mumbai and Ahmedabad, said the official.
