Investigators Trace International Cannabis Trafficking Link to Overseas Contacts

The recent drug bust at Ahmedabad’s main airport has prompted a broader probe into a cross‑border cannabis smuggling network. Authorities say the seized material, packed in vacuum‑sealed packs, was part of a larger operation that involves coordination with persons based outside India. Digital evidence, including WhatsApp messages, revealed that the passenger’s journey and the concealment strategy were planned with help from abroad. Both the traveller and the associate who met him at the airport have been placed in custody under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, while investigators continue to map the full extent of the syndicate.
