The Delhi Police have captured Nizamuddin, a 35-year-old tailor involved in an interstate drug syndicate centered in Uttar Pradesh, according to senior officials.

Known as Nizam, he was apprehended near Shyam Lal College in Delhi's Shahdara area on February 24. Authorities arrested him after he attempted to meet a contact in the Welcome area.

Nizam came under police radar following the arrest of Lalla Babu, an interstate drug supplier caught with 502 grams of heroin. Babu's links to Nand Nagri residents Vijay and Jitesh led to further probing. While Jitesh is in custody, Vijay remains elusive.

Nizam, identified as the main supplier for Lalla Babu, maintained consistent communication with him, as verified by call records. Despite attempts, Nizam could not secure bail due to a previous NDPS Act case.
