Please cross check with any flora. Please cut open the fruit as see
whether the seeds are red arillated and when you make a cut on the
bark there would be red sap oozing out.

But your description about fruits, opposite leaves and the place it is
collected provoked my thoughts and made me rethink. Now I don't think
that it is Myristica. Let me check it again.
Do you have a close up of leaves and fruit by any chance?
