Nexus of drug dealers, lawyers, politicians unearthed during Chanesar Goth operation
 [DAWN] KARACHI: A recent report by the police about an anti-drug operation in Chanesar Goth carries alarming details of connection between the law enforcement agency, its special and intelligence branches, excise department, and drug traders and smugglers protecting the illegal business in the city. The report, a copy of which is available with Dawn, also speaks of an "organised nexus of police, lawyers, notables and political representatives" behind the racket.The document titled Operation Detail Report ‐ Chanesar Goth, PS Mehmoodabad actually contains day-to-day details of a four-month operation in the densely populated neighbourhood that led to "almost an end" to drug business in the area where it had been booming for the last three decades. The success, the report said, was not achieved only through raids and sending over 150 drug peddlers behind bars but also taking action against dozens of coppers ranked from constable to DSP and severing the supply line, which was being operated by the excise officials.
