The Delhi Police special cell busted an international drug racket and arrested four persons carrying nearly 565 kilograms of contraband cocaine, valued over ₹2,000 crore, from the city on Tuesday night, officials said, adding that they suspect it to be a part of a narco-terror module.

The additional commissioner of police (special cell), Pramod Singh Kushwah, said that based on secret information, a dedicated team raided a deserted house in Mahipalpur area of southwest Delhi, from where the drug cartel was operating.

“The cocaine, sourced from abroad, was meant for distribution in Delhi and other parts of the country. The seized cocaine, packed in large sacks, was hidden in a truck travelling from a neighbouring state. We have arrested four people with cocaine, and we are investigating their links to international drug syndicates,” he said.
