Customs officials at Mundra port in Gujarat's Kutch district, India, recently seized approximately 6.8 million Tramadol tablets valued at Rs 110 crore
(around GBP 10.2 million).
The tablets were discovered in two export containers bound for Sierra Leone and Niger in West Africa.
Tramadol, an opioid pain medication, was classified as a psychotropic substance under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS Act) in 2018 and
its export is now restricted.
This synthetic opioid drug has gained notoriety in recent times as the "Fighter Drug" after it was reported that ISIS fighters used it to stay awake for long
hours, said a PIB release on Monday.
It is reportedly in high demand in African nations like Nigeria, Ghana, etc.
The Mundra Customs seizure is one of the largest seizures of Tramadol since it was notified under the NDPS Act, said the release.
