The arrest of eight business management students allegedly peddling narcotics led the Sanjay Nagar police to their drug supplier and a foreign national from Nigeria who are part of a drug racket. The police arrested a total of 10 people and recovered 60 grams of weed oil , 1.1 kg of marijuana, 127 grams of MDMA, 7.8 grams of cocaine , laptops and three mobile phones from them. The police, after receiving a tip-off, raided a bus stop in Sanjay Nagar where the students were waiting for their customers to deliver the drugs. “Most of the accused are enrolled in management courses in reputed colleges and in their early 20s. They are drug users turned peddlers,” claimed a senior police officer. The students allegedly confessed to the police that they sourced the drugs from Dark Web and connected with dealers via the messaging app, Wickr. “The accused also revealed the name of their source, an employee of a private transport company, identified as Pradeep Kumar Steve (24),” said the police officer.
