Delhi Police Crack Major Drug Trafficking Ring in Capital City

Delhi Police arrested 12 suspects in a major drug trafficking bust on March 22, 2026. The operation dismantled a network involved in smuggling synthetic drugs across northern India. Authorities seized over 50 kilograms of narcotics, including methamphetamine and MDMA, valued at approximately ₹10 crore, according to The Indian Express. The investigation began three months ago following intelligence inputs about increased drug supply in Delhi and neighboring states. Police officials stated the syndicate had connections in multiple states, facilitating cross-border trafficking. The crackdown is part of a broader effort to curb rising drug abuse and related crimes in urban centers. Authorities continue to investigate further leads to dismantle the entire network.
