The Delhi Police have successfully dismantled a criminal syndicate involved in the distribution of cocaine. On Friday, law enforcement officials arrested three suspects, including two foreign nationals, seizing cocaine valued at Rs 3.3 crore.

The arrests were executed after police received a credible tip-off. Among those apprehended were two Nigerian nationals, identified as Joshua Amarachukwa and Kone N Golo Seydou alias Mike, and Vinit, an Indian taxi driver who reportedly assisted in the operations.

Officials disclosed that Amarachukwa was in possession of 257 grams of cocaine, while Mike was caught with 306 grams in Haryana. It is alleged the drugs were distributed across the Delhi-NCR region. An investigation is still underway to further dismantle the syndicate's operations.
