On November 29, 2025, a joint operation by Delhi Police’s Crime Branch and the Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau resulted in the dismantling of an interstate and transnational drug trafficking network. Authorities arrested 10 core suspects, including three foreign nationals, and confiscated narcotics valued at approximately ₹ 12 crore.
The crackdown was executed after months of coordinated intelligence gathering. Teams from both police departments carried out multiple simultaneous raids across Delhi-NCR and adjoining regions reportedly linked to the gang. According to investigators, the syndicate used courier networks and covert delivery methods to transport drugs — including cocaine, synthetic narcotics and other contraband — from supply hubs to distribution modules feeding urban demand in Telangana and other states.
One of the individual raids, in West Delhi’s Mohan Garden area, led to the arrest of a 35-year-old foreign national identified as a key supplier. From her residence, police recovered 195 grams of cocaine, 24 grams of MDMA, and some cash. Separate raids reportedly unearthed more consignments, including ecstasy tablets and other psychoactive substances, along with documents and paraphernalia used for logistics.
Officials said the syndicate was run predominantly by foreign-origin operatives, using safe houses, sleeper cells and multiple “mule-accounts” to launder proceeds and avoid detection. Many of the detained foreigners were reportedly living in India without valid papers; alongside core suspects, authorities detained nearly 30 foreign nationals for further investigation and possible deportation.
Authorities described the bust as a significant blow to narcotics supply chains feeding Telangana and beyond. The arrests and large-scale seizure underscore the scale and sophistication of modern trafficking networks — and highlight the importance of inter-state and inter-agency cooperation in tackling them.
