Two Indian nationals were apprehended on charges of illegal cash transportation in Nepal's Kapilvastu district. Authorities revealed that Salman Quaresia and Umesh Sakharam Khandagle were found with INR 20.5 lakh without necessary documentation.

Both men, hailing from Maharashtra's Raigad district, were caught during a routine security operation at the Nepal-India border in Krishnanagar. They were using separate vehicles bearing Indian license plates.
