Man held with 600 kg banned tobacco items in Coimbatore

COIMBATORE: A 21-year-old man has been arrested with about 600kg banned tobacco products worth Rs 3.40 lakh near Sulur on the outskirts of the city.
The Sulur police said they were on a vehicle check near Indira Nagar on Tuesday, when M Mullaram, a native of Rajasthan, sped his car when they signalled him to stop the vehicle.
“We gave him a brief chase and managed to stop his car, in which he was smuggling gukta to be supplied to the shops in around Sulur,” a police officer said.
Mullaram, who was residing at Sulur, was arrested under Section 284 of the Indian Penal Code and various sections of the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act.
He was later produced before the judicial magistrate, who remanded him in judicial custody.
