The Anti-Narcotics Cell of Delhi Police has arrested Ravi, alias Babulal, the prime supplier in a case involving the seizure of 34.4 kg of ganja, police said. Ravi, from Supaul, Bihar, had been evading arrest for several months.
The case originated on July 26, when Delhi Police intercepted a car near Rajghat DTC Bus Depot. Three individuals — Kaushal Kumar (driver), Mani Bhushan, and Vinod Mandal — were apprehended with 34.40 kg of ganja, classified as a commercial quantity.
Subsequent investigation led to the arrest of Ganesh Kumar, who revealed that Ravi was their main supplier. Police launched raids and technical surveillance to track the absconding supplier. Ravi had fled to Nepal and frequently changed mobile numbers to avoid detection.
After sustained monitoring, Ravi was traced back to Supaul, Bihar, and arrested on November 27. During interrogation, he admitted to supplying the seized ganja to the co-accused apprehended in July. Police are now investigating his procurement and distribution network to uncover other individuals involved.
