Panaji (Goa) [India], November 28 (ANI): The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) Goa on Monday arrested two foreign nationals and recovered multiple drugs from the possession of this father-daughter duo, here.
Acting on a specific input, the NCB busted an international cartel active in Goa and arrested one Russian lady Ambika and one British citizen J. Lee, who is the former's father, an official statement said.

According to an official statement, the NCB officials seized a total of 107 MDMA tablets, 40 grams of high-grade Mephedrone and 55 grams of high-quality Hashish from their possession on Sunday.
The NCB statement said: "Initially, the input was received by the NCB-Goa Sub Zonal Unit about a drug syndicate operated by foreign nationals in the North Goa area and accordingly, details by the intelligence sources about Ambika were analysed. This lady was operating in association with another foreigner J.Lee who has been reported as a British citizen."
