New Delhi, September 17

The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has nabbed a Nigerian who is the mastermind of a drug trafficking syndicate in New Delhi.

DRI officials said the intelligence agency had seized 500 gram of cocaine on June 28 from a courier terminal and arrested two individuals during an operation from Nalasopara area of Mumbai.

On sustained interrogation of the arrested accused and forensic analysis of digital devices, the officers identified the mastermind of the drug syndicate who was operating from New Delhi.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
