Delhi: Drug smuggler’s luck runs out after 2 years
Dressed as an army or paramilitary personnel, 26-year-old Rohit Kumar would travel to the interiors of Visakhapatnam and Odisha to pick up marijuana from Naxal-infested belts. He would then pack them in black trunks and travel to Delhi on train. The science graduate made scores of such trips in the last two years smuggling contraband worth crores, police say. However, it was his last such journey on Monday as Delhi Police personnel busted him at New Delhi Railway Station. The cops got suspicious about his identity after noticing that there was nothing written on the trunks, which usually have the name and other details written in white on them for easy identification during movement in groups. Thirty-five packets having around two kg of ganja in each were seized after the cops checked his luggage. The cops are now looking for other members of this syndicate.
