Kerala Police Arrest Foreign Nationals in MDMA Drug Network Bust Across States
Kerala Police uncovered an international MDMA drug network starting from a 0.6-gram seizure in Kannur. Investigations led to arrests across multiple states, including key intermediaries and associates involved in drug manufacturing, distribution, and logistics. Two foreign nationals, a Nigerian and a Cameroonian, were arrested in Delhi for allegedly manufacturing MDMA. The network used drop points, fake documents, multiple SIM cards, and mule bank accounts to evade detection, with coordinated efforts between Kerala, Haryana, and Delhi police.
