New Delhi, Sep 14 (PTI) The Delhi Police has busted a drug trafficking network with the arrest of eight people, including two women, and recovered over Rs 3.71 crore in cash and 1.383 kg of smack, an official said on Monday.

The case came to light after two alleged drug peddlers, identified as Abdullah and Karan, were arrested in April this year, police said.

During interrogation, the duo disclosed the name of Kiran, who allegedly supplied them drugs. She was subsequently arrested and was found to be living in a posh housing society in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, they said.

Further investigation led to the arrest of at least five more people, including a man and his brother-in-law, police said.

Police have recovered Rs 3.71 crore in cash, 1.383 kg of smack and an SUV from the accused. The seized contraband is estimated to be worth around Rs 1.5 crore, officials said.

Further investigation is underway to identify other members of the network and trace the source and intended recipients of the drugs. PTI SSJ BM MDO MDO

Nine Years, Made Possible by Readers

In 2017, Shekhar Gupta started ThePrint with a simple belief: Indian readers want journalism that asks why and what next, not just what. And that enough of them would be willing to pay for good journalism.

And, in these nine years, we’ve stayed true to our mission. We’ve been asking the follow-up questions, going beyond the headlines and explaining what’s actually happening. We’ve travelled across the country to bring you in-depth, visually-compelling stories from the ground.

It’s been nine years of readers choosing to make this possible. If you’d like to be one of them:
