Drugs ordering through dark web
The release said that recently the crime branch received a secret information that drugs were being sent to India from other countries hiding inside toys and food products. Working on secret information, the Crime Branch contacted the Customs Department officials to identify the suspected parcel. The crime branch said that the crime branch found these drugs hidden inside other items after examining 105 such parcels assigned by the Customs Department. These parcels came from countries like America, Canada and Thailand and were ordered from India using the dark web.
The accused are not getting identified
Assistant Commissioner of Police Himala Joshi said, “The sectors and recipients of these parcels have not been identified yet, as all the parcel had incomplete or incorrect information.” “This was deliberately done by drug dealers to dodge the authorities. The recipient gives incomplete or incorrect address and name. Then, he keeps an eye on the activities of the local postman and contacts him whenever he comes to the area with a parcel.” (Input-PTI)
