Delhi Police have successfully dismantled a major interstate drug racket, arresting seven individuals and seizing over 121 kilograms of cannabis, officials said Tuesday. The operation dealt a significant blow to the drug smuggling network operating between South India and Delhi.
The accused were identified as Md Nooren, Rashidul, Badashah Alam, Parmila Parbin, Sohil, Basanti Dass, and Abdul Rehman. Police recovered 121.148 kilograms of cannabis and eight mobile phones, which provided insight into the gang’s operations spanning Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, and Delhi.
Acting on a tip-off, police intercepted four suspects near Kalindi Kunj, confiscating 61.8 kilograms of cannabis. Further arrests in Greater Noida uncovered more cannabis from a godown. Authorities continue efforts to capture the alleged kingpin, Javed, as investigations progress.
