Initial investigations have exposed a nexus of the accused—Jaswinder Singh and Ramesh Kumar, both residents of Jalandhar district—with some gangsters lodged in Punjab’s jails and a Dubai-based smuggler.
Besides the heroin, two .32 bore pistols and a car have also been recovered from the accused, who used to bring drugs from Srinagar on instructions from imprisoned gangsters in Punjab.
The drug cartel’s links have been traced to a Dubai-based individual, who is allegedly involved in networking with the drug smugglers in Kashmir for supply of drugs to drug smugglers and traffickers based in Punjab.
