He was detained by the police with the manager of Super Zet Courier Service identified as Laishram Seityam (42) of Kwakeithel Laishram Leikai.
The consignment of poster was sent to one Bakta through the Super Zet Courier.
The Kangla Rjdhani transported the pack yesterday to Imphal.
A team of Imphal west police this morning raided the office of the courier service and seized the pack of posters.
They also picked up the manager for interrogation on the matter.
Later the driver of the bus transporting the consignment was also picked up for verification.
They were released this evening.
