Cops conduct CASO, arrest three peddlers

The Police Zone 1 carried out a cordon and search operation (CASO) at various places and arrested three drug peddlers. They also recovered drugs from the peddlers.

ADCP-1 Sameer Verma, who led the operation, said the operation was conducted under the ongoing campaign against drugs. All SHOs of police zone along with force conducted surprise raids at houses and other places of peddlers who are either on bail now or suspected to be involved in drug peddling.

“Three peddlers were arrested by the police and drugs were also recovered from their possession. A case under the NDPS Act was registered against the suspects and now, the police will obtain their police remand to bust the entire drug supply line,” Verma said.

He said the police would continue to conduct such operations in coming days and drug peddling would not be allowed in the Police Zone 1.
