Narcotics worth Rs 4 crore seized in Delhi

Narcotics Control Bureau sleuths have seized large quantity of cocaine, estimated to be worth Rs 4 crore, from two African nationals in two separate incidents in Delhi.
In the first incident, the NCB sleuths detected and intercepted a parcel containing 120 gm of cocaine which had gramophone records as its declared consignment. The sleuths arrested a Nigerian citizen yesterday when he was allegedly receiving the parcel sent to him from Sao Paulo in Brazil.
In the second incident, NCB officials recovered 370 gm of the drug from the south Delhi residence of a Ghana national during a search yesterday.
"Cocaine is a narcotic drug which is rarely seized in such quantities. It is essentially abused in the party circuit and for rave get-togethers.Both the accused have been arrested under anti-narcotics laws and further interrogation is on," a senior official said.

"The estimated value of the seized drug is about Rs 4 crore," the official added.
