Members of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) seized 0.12 million pieces of Yaba pills worth Tk 36 million from near Naf River along the bordering area in Teknaf upazila of Cox’s Bazar district.

During a regular patrolling, a team of BGB-2 noticed a boat coming from the Myanmar border trying to anchor near Kewra forest along the Naf River around 8:45pm, said a press release of BGB issued on Wednesday.
