Afghan Handlers in Delhi Exposed
The arrest of Sukhdeep Singh and Krishan has uncovered links to a larger international drug network, with Afghan handlers playing a pivotal role in coordinating the supply chain from Delhi. Initial investigations suggest that the heroin seized had been smuggled into India through intricate channels involving multiple handlers and routes, making it a significant seizure in the ongoing fight against drug trafficking.
Police sources have indicated that the Afghan handlers involved are part of a sophisticated operation that has been under the radar for some time. Further arrests are expected as law enforcement agencies ramp up their efforts to trace the entire network.

This major bust comes as a strong reinforcement of the Punjab government’s goal to curb the drug menace under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. The administration has been actively pushing forward its anti-drug campaign, cracking down on cartels and dealers across the state.
“This operation is a testament to our commitment to making Punjab a drug-free state,” said a senior police official. “We are sending a clear message that we will not tolerate drug peddling, and we will bring all involved to justice.”
Ongoing Investigation and Future Operations
