Bus driver takes 35kg marijuana to police station
By a Post Reporter
HETAUDA, April 10 - Plans of four marijuana dealers went astray when a bus
driver decided to drop the contraband at a police station instead, frustrating the drug
peddlers who had threatened the driver for his life.
All four left the bus at Jyamire, Manhara VDC, which lies in the middle of
the Hetauda-Narayanghat Road and the bus driver Ram Bahadur Shrestha at gunpoint early
this morning to deliver 35 kg of marijuana to Amlekhgunj. All four are at large and their
identities remain unknown.
Instead of taking the bus to the intended place, Shrestha took it to the
District Police Office, according to Police Inspector Madhu Sudan Luintel.
Shrestha had been warned that he would not be allowed to ply the route if he
failed to oblige them, Shrestha told the District Police Office.
Shrestha was asked to stop at Jyamire where the
peddlers had pointed a gun at him.
