Police Arrest Multiple Suspects in Interstate Drug Trafficking CasesPreviousNext

Shimla and Panchkula police have arrested multiple individuals involved in interstate drug trafficking, recovering heroin and charas. Investigations used digital evidence, call records, and financial transactions to trace suppliers from Chandigarh and Kullu district, Himachal Pradesh. Cases under the NDPS Act were registered, and accused individuals have been sent to judicial custody. These actions are part of ongoing efforts to dismantle drug supply networks across states.
