A special team formed to investigate into the organised gold smuggling activities in Nepal on Thursday afternoon raided the residential apartment of trader Bimal Poddar in Dillibazaar of Kathmandu.

The committee formed by the Ministry of Home Affairs has already arrested Poddar from his residence on Tuesday. The team had recorded his statements on Wednesday.

Investigators say the raid follows the recording of statements and is a part of investigation itself.

Earlier, based on the investigation carried out by the committee, the Morang District Attorney Office had filed a case against 63 persons including former and current police officials, traders and alleged smugglers among others.
