Massive Cocaine Haul Unveils Global Drug Syndicate in Delhi

Delhi Police seized 208 kg of cocaine valued at Rs 2,080 crore from a shop in west Delhi, linking it to a previous 562 kg seizure. An Indian-origin UK citizen is prime suspect. The syndicate, led by Dubai-based Virender Basoya, operates internationally.

In a significant crackdown on narcotics, the Delhi Police uncovered a staggering 208 kg of cocaine worth Rs 2,080 crore from a rented shop in west Delhi. The drugs were cleverly concealed in snack packets labeled 'Tasty Treat' and 'Chatpata Mixture'.

The seizure is part of a larger investigation connected to a prior recovery of 562 kg of drugs from southwest Delhi's Mahipalpur. Authorities have identified an Indian-origin UK citizen as a key player, although he evaded capture just before the police arrived.

Dubai-based businessman Virender Basoya, believed to lead the syndicate, is still at large. This haul is part of an array of operations indicating a sophisticated international drug network operating via social media code names and discreet routes.
