PALAKKAD, Feb 5: A pick-up van carrying more than 100 boxes of explosives have been seized near Palakkad town area in Kerala, the police said.
\nAn officer of the Palakkad Town South police station said they found over 100 boxes of gelatin sticks and more than 20 boxes of detonators in the vehicle.
\nThe boxes were hidden under a consignment of watermelons, he said, adding that the seizure occurred late on Wednesday (February 4, 2026). The officer further said that the driver of the vehicle was taken into custody. During preliminary interrogation, the driver revealed that he had loaded the boxes from Coimbatore and was taking them to a quarry in Thrissur, he said.
\nThe police intercepted the pick-up van during an inspection of vehicles after receiving information that large quantities of explosives were being illegally brought into the State, the officer said.
\n\u201cThe driver did not stop the vehicle when the police asked him to. Thereafter, the vehicle was chased down,\u201d he said.
\nThe police officer said that a case under the Explosive Substances Act will be registered against the driver after the seizure of the boxes is completed.<\/p>\n
