Nigerian woman among 3 held

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: The Delhi zonal unit of the Narcotics Control Bureau has smashed an international drug trafficking syndicate with the arrest of three persons including a Nigerian woman at Uttam Nagar here. The agency claims to have seized 4 kg of heroin of Afghan origin and 30,000 dollars.

Through surveillance, the NCB recently found that Krishna Tiwari who was lodged at Tihar Central Jail in a kidnapping case had been running a drug trafficking racket in connivance with his wife Anju. The agency zeroed in on Anju keeping a track on her movements.

Acting on a tip-off that Anju would deliver a consignment of heroin to someone at Uttam Nagar, the NCB sleuths laid a trap and tried to intercept a car in which the suspects were travelling. They waved at the driver to stop, but he tried to escape. However, they managed to arrest three of the occupants of the car.

During interrogation, the three identified themselves as Anju, her cousin Rakesh and Niomi, a Nigerian woman.
