The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Saturday claimed to have busted a major drug trafficking network with the arrest of eight persons, including a Nigerian national, and seizure of 34.89 kg of heroin. Other than these eight persons, three women from African countries have also been detained.
The Nigerian national, who had been running the alleged syndicate from Delhi and identified as the “kingpin”, has been arrested from Delhi. “The network was unearthed in a joint operation by the Delhi, Indore and Bengaluru zonal units, coordinated by the officials at NCB headquarters,” said an official.
