Agartala: Police on Monday produced three youths before a local court at Kailashahar in Tripura’s Unakoti district, seeking their remand to investigate a counterfeit currency network operating within the state. The suspects, identified as Mihot Miah, Akhtar Ali, and Sayan Ali, all residents of the Babur Bazar area in Kailashahar, were apprehended on Sunday at Srinathpur.
The arrest took place following a covert operation by police from the Irani PS in Kailashahar, who set up a trap in the Srinathpur area to capture those suspected of involvement in a cross-border fake Indian currency racket. The accused were intercepted while traveling in an auto-rickshaw towards Kailashahar.
