“In recent past, many drug peddlers were arrested with drugs in Dibrugarh but still the drug racket has been thriving in Dibrugarh and the racketeers are running the illegal business in a very organised way. If properly investigated many names will come to the fore who are associated with the drug business,” said a source.
