In a significant move against drug activities, the Delhi Police’s Anti-Narcotics Squad (ANS) apprehended two drug suppliers and confiscated a substantial amount of ganja, along with cash and packaging materials. The arrested individuals, Nadeem, 28, and Monu alias Abhishek, 25, were found in possession of 45.760 kg of ganja, valued at around Rs 23 lakh in the illegal market. Additionally, the police seized cash totaling Rs 2,65,400, an electronic weighing machine, and bulk packaging items during the operation.
This operation is part of the Delhi Police’s ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking and dismantle organized drug networks. A specialized team from the ANS, led by Inspector Arun Kumar and supervised by ACP Operations Pawan Kumar, successfully carried out the arrest. The team, including SI Rahul Monga, SI Vikas, ASI Arun Kumar, ASI Amit Kumar, and other personnel, acted on specific intelligence received on April 2, leading to the raid at a residential location in Jawahar Mohallah, Shashi Garden, where the accused were actively involved in packaging the contraband.
The seized ganja, weighing 45 kg and 760 grams, was classified as a commercial quantity under the NDPS Act. The accused, Nadeem and Monu, disclosed during interrogation that they were part of an organized drug supply chain operating in Delhi-NCR. They sourced ganja in bulk from outside the state and stored it in residential areas to avoid detection. The drugs were repackaged into smaller units using basic tools for distribution through local networks.
Both Nadeem and Monu have no previous criminal records. Nadeem, residing in Shashi Garden, is married and educated up to Class 8, while Monu, from Shastri Mohalla, Patparganj, is unmarried and studied up to Class 7. Investigations are ongoing to uncover the full scope of the drug supply chain, including potential interstate connections.
