The smugglers attempted to flee the toll booth by driving their van at high speed and ramming it into a vehicle carrying CBN officials. The driver of the CBN vehicle sustained minor injuries in the collision. The dramatic chase and collision were captured on the toll plaza’s CCTV cameras, and the footage has since gone viral.

The video shows the smugglers attempting to evade arrest by reversing their vehicle and accelerating at high speed to hit the police vehicle. Despite their efforts to escape, the CBN team managed to apprehend the two individuals.

During the operation, the authorities recovered 911 kg of doda post, a banned narcotic substance, from the smugglers’ vehicle. Several other vehicles were damaged in the incident. The arrested individuals are currently in custody, and further investigation into the case is underway.
