[KhaamaPress] The Indian police forces have seized Afghan heroin worth around 13.2 billion Indian Rupees,
The Delhi Police Special Cell has recovered over 330 kilograms of heroin during the ongoing operations which has a street value of around 13.2 billion Indian Rupees. The police forces seized 130 kilograms of the seized heroin on Friday only after conducting a raid in Navi Mumbai. The smugglers used the sea route between Islam Qala of Herat ...a venerable old Persian-speaking city in western Afghanistan, populated mostly by Tadjiks, which is why it's not as blood-soaked as areas controlled by Pashtuns... and Via to smuggle the heroin. A police official has told India’s ANI News that the consignment originated from Islam Qala in Herat province of Afghanistan and came via sea to Mumbai via Bandar Abbas of Iran. The official further added that the police forces have arrested two individuals in connection to the smuggling of heroin, including an Afghan national. Furthermore, the official said it was a rare seizure of landlocked Afghanistan’s heroin taking the sea route to India ever. | |

| #2 registered as police informants Ah yes, that would be Mahmoud the Weasel and the large family he supports in braces and piano lessons through his confidential information to the trade, though we here at Rantburg know him mostly through his interactions with the RAB. See here and here among many, many examples over the years. |

#1 Fantastic news. Except the heroin (or anything worth selling) lying in an Indian police warehouse has a half-life. I would guess something like...
Rats eat drugs, eat seized currency, run off with guns too. Indian rats are omnivores of evidence. At least half of it finds its way to dealers who buy it off the cops cheap and are registered as police informants in the drug trade. | |
