Siolim: In a coordinated anti-narcotics operation, Anjuna Police, acting on a reliable tip-off received by PSI Ramesh Harijan, arrested Jude Boussari (44), a Cameroonian national, for alleged possession of 10.53 grams of cocaine valued at ₹1.10 lakh and cash amounting to ₹6.81 lakh.
The operation took place near Love Story Villa, Bammonwado, Solim, Bardez, where police intercepted a blue Fascino scooter (GA-03-BD-1164) ridden by the accused. Upon searching, the contraband and cash were recovered, and the accused was placed under arrest following all NDPS procedures.
The seized items were taken into custody under panchanama, and the accused was remanded to police custody. The Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), Panaji, has been notified to inform the Cameroon Embassy about the arrest.
