In a significant joint operation aimed at combating drug trafficking and adhering to the 'Zero Tolerance against Drugs' policy, Delhi Police and Gujarat Police successfully seized a massive haul of 518 kilograms of cocaine, estimated to be worth a staggering Rs 5,000 crore. This operation, undertaken under the banner of the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, underscores the commitment of law enforcement agencies to curb the flow of illegal substances and protect public health. The recovery of such a substantial quantity of cocaine highlights the sophisticated nature of drug trafficking networks operating within the country and the relentless efforts required to dismantle them.
The seizure occurred during a search operation conducted at the premises of Avkar Drugs Limited Company located in Ankleshwar, Gujarat. This operation follows previous seizures made by the Delhi Police, which initially recovered a substantial consignment of 562 kilograms of cocaine and 40 kilograms of hydroponic marijuana from a warehouse owned by Tushar Goyal in Mahipalpur. Further investigations led to the recovery of an additional 208 kilograms of cocaine from a shop situated in Ramesh Nagar, Delhi. The investigation revealed that the seized drugs were linked to Pharma Solution Services and originated from Avkar Drugs Limited Company in Gujarat.
The successful outcome of this joint operation underscores the importance of inter-agency collaboration in combating drug trafficking. The coordinated efforts of the Delhi Police and Gujarat Police, coupled with their determination to dismantle drug networks, resulted in a major blow to the illicit drug trade. The total amount of cocaine seized in this case stands at 1,289 kilograms, along with 40 kilograms of hydroponic Thailand marijuana, with an estimated combined value of Rs 13,000 crore. This significant seizure demonstrates the commitment of law enforcement agencies to prioritize public safety and combat the serious threat posed by drug trafficking.
