The operation took place in Abid, where authorities seized ₹55,52,500 in old notes. The main suspect, Syed Muzammil Hussain, and his associate, Amzad Khan, had gathered the demonetised currency after failing to exchange it legally.

The suspects and the seized currency have been handed over to local police for further investigation.
