A DNC report says phensedyl and other drugs are entering the country through 58 border points.
Jamal Uddin Ahmed, director general of the DNC, told The Daily Star on January 16 that there have been signs of rise in phensedyl smuggling in recent years.
“We have already informed this to the Indian authorities and requested them to take necessary measures.”
Asked about the reasons behind the rise in Phensedyl flow, he said they have found that the majority of narcotics users in Bangladesh are habituated to taking multiple drugs.
“As the supply of yaba has come down due to law enforcers’ stepped-up vigilance, the smugglers are trying to have a grip on the market with Phensedyl,” he said.
Lt Col Md Mohiuddin Ahmed, director (operation) at Border Guard Bangladesh (BG Headquarters, echoed the same.
