Major crack down against drug trafficking, a Nigerian woman identified as Etumudon Doris was arrested with narcotics worth over Rs 36 crore at the Panvel Railway station near Mumbai, India.

The drugs were seized in a joint operation by the Railway Protection Force (RPF) Panvel, Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), Bengaluru, and the Crime Intelligence Branch (CIB) Kurla, Mumbai.

The crackdown took place after NCB tipped off authorities about a possible smuggling attempt on the Hazrat Nizamuddin-Ernakulam Mangala Express train which was scheduled to arrive at Panvel Railway Station on Friday, July 19, 2025.

Responding to the information, a team was quickly formed.

As the train reached platform number 7, the team found the Nigerian woman, who identified herself as Etumudon Doris and was travelling with an infant whom she claimed was her child.

Upon questioning, the officials said, the woman confessed to being in possession of the narcotics.

It is very unfortunate that some Nigerians are tarnishing the image of Nigerians in international level. They should give her life imprisonment so that it will act as deterrent to others. What a disgrace!

It's really painful seeing such news related to Nigeria, this just giving the country a bad name to be honest.
