Police in Jalandhar, India on Thursday, July 13th, arrested notorious Nigerian
drug peddler identified simply as Okey with half a kg of heroin.
The accused, who was nabbed from the under bridge of Surya Enclave
during routine checking, was arrested two months
ago and put him behind bars.
According
to Tribune India, he was released on bail days ago only for him to
embark on another drug peddling move. The police said the interrogation
of another Nigerian national,
named Agu Emmanuel, arrested on June 14, had revealed that a drug
network on a large scale
was being run from Delhi and drugs were being supplied from the national
Capital to Jalandhar.
During interrogation, Emmanuel, 32, said he had landed at the Mumbai airport in January on a
tourist visa and had contacted his old mate Yohan at a local cloth
market. He said after living in the Mohammad Arif market in Mumbai with
Yohan for one month, he moved to Delhi where he met Kingsley and Iffai
who was living at Om Vihar in Delhi.
Then, he was introduced to Okey, also known as Lucky, who runs
drug business in Delhi and various districts of Punjab. Taking the lead,
the city police arrested Okey in April this year, but he was released
on bail.
