New Delhi, October 4
The Special Cell of Delhi Police arrested Jatinderpal Singh alias Jassi, a UK-based NRI, from Sri Guru Ram Das Ji from Amritsar International airport minutes before he was going to flee from the country.
Jassi has been held in connection with the recent high-profile drug bust case in the national capital.
The officials stated that a lookout circular was issued against him after his role in the drug cartel came to light during interrogation of four suspects apprehended with around 560 kg of cocaine and 40 kg of marijuana from a three-storey godown in south Delhi.
The Special Cell stated that Jassi was trying to flee back to the UK following the arrest of his alleged four accomplices in Delhi. He has been living in the United Kingdom for the past 17 years and was a green card holder. He had recently arrived in India to ensure delivery of the contraband to the cartel operatives here. The drug cartel was reportedly being operated by a Dubai-based Indian citizen.
The officials added that drug syndicate was operating out of Delhi and Mumbai and used to target concerts, rave parties and posh areas in Delhi and other metropolitan cities.
