Nigerian arrested in India for trying to sell drug

A 44-year-old Nigerian was arrested from Diva with 250g of Mephedrone (MD).

Police claimed that there could be more arrests in the case after they get the report of technical details that they have sent for testing. 

The Nigerian has been remanded to police custody for four days.

A few days ago, an officer from Mumbra police received information about a drug dealer coming near Diva dumping ground to sell MD. 

A team of officials, on November 29, laid a trap and nabbed the person red handed with the possession of MD powder worth ₹2.50 lakh.

A police officer said, “The accused had come to Diva to sell the drugs. He is a resident of Kharghar in Navi Mumbai and has been developing his network here.

“Although he didn’t reveal the name or any other information so far, we are waiting for technical details of his phones and by recovering messages to get an idea about the remaining gang.” (Hindustan Times)
