Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) personnel seized 20,000 pieces of Yaba in Teknaf Upazila in Cox’s Bazar on Tuesday morning. Being tipped off, a team of BGB-42 conducted a drive in Lehda hill of Teknaf around 4:30am and recovered 20,000 pieces of the contraband tablet in an abandoned condition, said Lt. Col. Abu Zar Al Zahid, commanding officer of BGB Battalion-42. The smugglers, however, managed to escape sensing the presence of BGB men, he added, according to a news agency.
