New Delhi, Sep 3
In a breakthrough against narcotics trafficking, the Delhi Police Crime Branch has busted an international syndicate of drug suppliers, arresting six persons, including two Nigerian nationals and a woman, from Delhi, Greater Noida and Bengaluru.
Around 7 kg of methamphetamine worth Rs 21 crore has been recovered. According to police, the syndicate was largely run by Keralites based in Bengaluru, while the drugs were being sourced through Nigerian suppliers.
The operation was carried out by the WR-II unit of the Crime Branch under DCP Harsh Indora, IPS, following inputs from Kerala Police. The crackdown began on July 19, when secret information led to the arrest of Suhail (31) and Sujin (32), both residents of Kerala, from a South-West Delhi guest house.
