GUWAHATI, June 7 - CID sleuths this morning seized 36 cartons of Myanmar-made cigarettes from a truck at Lokhra.
The truck was parked at a parking lot. The driver and the handyman apparently fled following the CID raid.
�The operation was conducted following a tip-off. The cartons were hidden beneath coal. Apparently the cigarettes were brought from Moreh and were bound for northern India,� CID officials said. It is estimated that the cost of seized cigarettes could be around Rs 40 lakh.
