Garchuk police in Guwahati foiled a smuggling bid by seizing a 10-wheeler truck loaded with cattle during a crackdown on Tuesday. The operation turned out to be a massive success with the apprehension of seven suspects.

The operation, supervised by assistant commissioner of police (ACP) Nilotpal Saikia, led to the recovery of 31 cattle heads. However, several cattle did not survive the ordeal with the police finding their remains inside the truck.
