The Crime Branch has busted an interstate racket involved in supply of narcotics substance in various parts of NCR with the arrest of Pabbar Giri (40) and Sumit (30) from Sector-13, Dwarka, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Ravindra Yadav said.
On December 16, police received information about Giri and Sumit coming from Dwarka Mor in their car loaded with large quantity of cannabis, he said.
