A court in Thrissur, India, has sentenced two men to 15 years of rigorous imprisonment for their role in a major drug seizure in 2021. The convicts, residents of Aluva in Kerala, were found guilty in connection with the seizure of 141 kilograms of ganja in Kodakara. In addition to the prison term, the court imposed a fine of 1 lakh Indian rupees (approximately $1,200) on each of the accused. The case dates back to 2021 when law enforcement intercepted a large consignment of the illegal drug. The prosecution successfully argued that the accused were key figures in the smuggling operation. The verdict marks a significant step in the state's efforts to curb drug trafficking, with the court emphasizing the seriousness of the offense. The rigorous imprisonment term reflects the stringent penalties for drug-related crimes under Indian law.
