NIA chargesheets eight in 500-kg heroin haul case


New Delhi, August 8

The National Investigation Agency has filed a chargesheet against eight Indian members of a global narco-terror gang, who were operating from Pakistan and Dubai, under the NDPS Act and UAPA in connection with alleged smuggling of 500-kg heroin, worth about Rs 1,500 crore, through Gujarat sea route.

In the chargesheet, the NIA has said its probe has revealed that the heroin was brought in three trips from Pakistan through the sea route in Gujarat by the gang, in connivance with Pakistani nationals, NIA spokesperson DIG Sonia Narang said, adding that all the consignments were eventually transported to Punjab clandestinely. She said, “All the three consignments were transported to Punjab where STF (Amritsar), police seized 188 kg of the drugs.” — TNS
