Tila Kumari Bishwakarma, commonly known as ‘auntie’ among drug users in Tulsipur, has been arrested on charges related to her long-standing role as a major supplier of illegal drugs.
Police arrested 53-year-old Tulsipur sub-metropolitan City-8 resident in an operation named ‘Operation Aunty’.
Bishwakarma, who previously worked at a local medical store, reportedly began supplying medications after gaining insight into commonly abused substances. She is accused of selling drugs under the guise of a street vendor and amassing property from her trade, said Deputy Superintendent of Police Anil Thakuri of the Tulsipur Regional Police Station.
Police recovered 350 tramadol tablets from 35 strips in her possession and seized a further 2,340 tablets from her home. Bishwakarma is believed to have procured her supplies from the Nepal-India border area in Rupaidiha, police inspector Prakash Thapa said.
