In a major breakthrough, the Delhi Police have busted a drug syndicate and arrested a key accused with heroin worth over Rs 50 lakh. The operation began with the arrest of Imran, a 40-year-old, on April 4 in Kabir Nagar. Imran was allegedly caught red-handed while delivering 315 grams of heroin in a car, as confirmed by Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch), Apoorva Gupta.
During interrogation, Imran revealed that he had procured the heroin from Suraj, a resident of New Usmanpur.
