It is suspected that the drug trafficker has properties in Gujarat and Maharashtra as well. Odisha police are in touch with their Gujarat counterparts in this regard.
A detailed proposal for confirmation of seizure/forfeiture of the properties earned out of illegal contraband drugs business was also sent to the office of Competent Authority, Kolkata as per provision of Sec. 68 (F) NDPS Act, 1985, it said.
