The Delhi Crime Branch has successfully apprehended three people involved in drug supply within Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) as part of a major crackdown on drug trafficking. According to the police, the operation resulted in the seizure of a significant 426 grams of heroin from the arrested defendants’ possession.

The initial arrest unfolded near the Anand Vihar Bus Terminal, where 19-year-old Mohd Nasir, alias Kaku, a prime accused engaged in drug trafficking, was apprehended with a significant haul of heroin. Following Nasir’s arrest, the investigative team acted swiftly and arrested another suspect, Mohd Bijli, from Delhi’s Haiderpur area, based on the information provided by Nasir.

During the subsequent stages of the investigation, Mohd Bijli revealed that the procured contraband originated from two additional suspects, namely Mujiv and Sohail. Consequently, Sohail was promptly taken into custody, while Mujiv currently remains at large, according to the police.

This recent operation follows closely on the heels of the Delhi Police Crime Branch’s successful apprehension of an international drug trafficker in Telangana over the weekend. The trafficker, previously convicted in a rape case, had been evading law enforcement since obtaining parole in 2014.

The Delhi Crime Branch’s proactive measures against drug trafficking underscore the commitment of law enforcement to curb the drug menace and maintain public safety in the region. The arrests and seizures contribute to ongoing efforts to dismantle drug networks and ensure the security of the community.
