Dated : 25.5.2014
PAN INDIAN SYNDICATE OF DRUG PEDDLERS BUSTED; 21
KG HEROIN AND 09 KG CRUDE METH, VALUED AT ABOUT
100 CRORES RECOVERED
The Special Cell of Delhi Police has been relentlessly working on
international as well as inter-state drug cartels and has made sizeable
recoveries in the past six months. Continuing its pursuit, on 20/05/2014,
acting upon a specific input, a team of Special Cell led by Inspector
Umesh Barthwal apprehended two drug traffickers namely Mohammed
Sajid Zubair, s/o Md Zubair, r/o Sunita Niwas, Upper Trombay,
Customs Road, Mumbai, Maharashtra and Noushad Abdul Rahiman,
s/o Abdul Rahiman, r/o H.No. TC-63/223, Triveni Nagar, Poonthura
Post, Trivandrum, Kerala from near the Shanti Stoop, Millennium
Park, Sarai Kale Khan, New Delhi and recovered a total of 16 Kgs fine
quality heroine and 09 Kgs of crude methamphetamine which was
concealed beneath their wearing clothes. A case under the relevant
sections of law was registered in this regard in PS Special Cell and
investigation was taken up. During the course of investigation, on
24/05/2014, the team made spectacular arrests of Shahjahan Mohd.
Yasin @ Karim @ Setha Bhai, s/o Mohd. Yasin, r/o G-Sector, Cheetah
Camp, Trombay, Mumbai and Abdul Sattar @ Sheru, s/o Sardar Sheikh,
r/o J-Sector, Cheetah Camp, Trombay, Mumbai and has made further
recovery of 5 Kgs of fine quality heroin, thus taking the total recoveries
in the case to 30 Kgs of contraband, valued at approximately 100 Crore
Rupees in the international market. With the arrests of Karim and
Sheru, the Special Cell has effectively neutralized an important arm of
this trans-national drug syndicate involved in mass trafficking of high
1
value narcotics across Kuwait, Dubai, Pakistan, Afghanistan, India and
Sri Lanka.
OPERATION:
The arrests of Shurbir, Raghmeet and Autar Singh in the month
of December 2013, which had led to the recovery of 49 Kgs of
contraband, had exposed a vast international syndicate of
producers/synthesizers/peddlers of high quality contraband which was
spread over Kuwait, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Sri Lanka apart from
India. This team of Special Cell kept relentlessly pursuing the leads
which could be gathered and collated from the expanse of this network
and kept diligently deploying its sources over the communications and
movements of a large number of suspects. This led the team to a
Mumbai based network which was a part of the larger syndicate which
was involved in trans-border peddling of high quality drugs. Sources
were deployed to identify the various members of this cartel and to keep
a watch over their movements. On 20/05/2014, one of the deployed
sources gave the specific information that two members of this cartel,
who had picked up a consignment of drugs from near the Attari border,
will be arriving in Delhi on their way back to Mumbai. Accordingly, a
trap was laid and both the accused were arrested and recoveries
amounting to a total of 25 Kgs of high quality contraband were effected
from their possession. The arrested accused were produced before the
concerned Court and 7 days Police Custody Remand was obtained to
interrogate them further for understanding the true extent and depth of
the syndicate for which they were operating. As per the information
provided by these accused, they were acting on behalf of the syndicate
headed by one Karim (alias name), based out of Cheetah Camp,
Trombay, Mumbai. It was also learnt that one Sheru (alias name) was
the main assistant to Karim. Based upon the information provided by
the arrested accused, a team was sent to Mumbai to trace and
apprehend Karim but he was found unavailable at his address. The
team sent to Mumbai diligently developed local sources there and
camped in the area to collate the inputs being provided by the sources
based in Delhi with the information being generated regarding Karim
and Sheru in Mumbai. This painstaking effort paid fruit when on
24/05/2014, a deployed source informed that Karim and Sheru had
arrived in Delhi looking for their associates Sajid and Noushad and
further that after receiving a consignment of drugs from a supplier
2
somewhere in Paharganj area, they were expected to arrive at the
Punjabi Bagh roundabout to receive another consignment before leaving
Delhi for their way back to Mumbai. To act upon this information, a
team was deployed to cover strategic locations around the Punjabi Bagh
roundabout along with the arrested accused Noushad and Sajid, to
identify Karim and Sheru as and when they arrive. In the forenoon
hours, when Karim and Sheru arrived near the said location, they were
identified by Noushad and Sajid and were swiftly apprehended by the
team. A total of 5 Kgs of fine quality heroin was recovered from their
possession.
PROFILE OF ACCUSED MOHD SAJID ZUBAIR:
Sajid Zubair was born in 1989 in Kalyan, Mumbai. His father
used to run an Export-Import firm with his partners which went in loss
and had to be closed. Thereafter, to earn his livelihood, he started
working as a labor in a local hotel as a daily wager. Zubair has 2
younger brothers. He holds a Polytechnic Diploma in Electronics &
Telecommunications from Anjuma-i-Islam, Panvel, Mumbai. With this
professional diploma, he worked as a Business Development Officer
with Excel Video Group for some time in 2008. Thereafter, he has
worked in several BOPs in short stints and his last occupation was with
one RAPS Modeling & Acting Academy in Mumbai. Of late, he was
trying to scout for a job in the Middle East. Since VISA and other
arrangements for Middle East required money, he contacted one known
drug peddler who lived in his locality and offered to work for him. This
drug peddler, sensing that Zubair with his educational background and
smartness could be an asset for his syndicate, absorbed him and in
January 2014, gave him his first task of visiting Delhi to collect a
consignment. In January 2014, Zubair came to Delhi and collected a
consignment of drugs from a supplier near the Rajouri Garden Metro
Station. For this successful delivery, he was paid handsome money by
his handler. From this money, Zubair travelled to Kuwait in April 2014
on a Khadim VISA (Labor VISA). There, he worked in the house of an
Aamir who treated him like a slave. Fed up of the treatment being
meted out to him, Zubair came back to India towards the end of April
2014 and rejoined his peddler associate. This time, his peddler associate
got him introduced to the bigger syndicate operators of Mumbai and he
was given a more demanding task of travelling up to the Indo-Pak
border for collecting fresh consignments. He arrived in Delhi where his
3
handlers paired him with another member of this syndicate namely
Noushad who had arrived from Trivandrum. Together with this
Noushad, Zubair travelled to Attari border and received the drug
consignment. On his way back to Mumbai via Delhi, he was
apprehended.
PROFILE OF ACCUSED NOUSHAD ABDUL RAHIMAN:
Noushad was born in 1979 in Vallakkadavu, Kerala. His late
father was a driver who worked for a meager salary. His family of six
persons used to live in great financial hardships. He has two brothers,
one of whom runs an ornamental jewelry shop in Trivendram & the
other one is working in Saudi Arabia. Noushad has passed B.Com
(Bachelor of Commerce) from Kerala University in the year 2000. After
completing studies, he worked in a cargo company in Vallakkadavu for
3 years. Thereafter, he worked in a readymade cloth shop for another 34 years and since then, has been employed in one furniture export
company as a sales executive. Around 4 years ago, Noushad had come to
Mumbai along with one of his friends for purchasing some clothes and
there, he met a drug peddler who came across as a generous person.
This peddler was a Tamilian and therefore, they developed good
regional bonding. However, this meeting remained innocent and
Noushad returned to his native place and resumed his regular
employment. Since the last few months, he was facing a financial
crunch and therefore, decided to renew his contact with this generous
Tamilian friend with whom he was in general touch over the past years.
When Noushad expressed his state of financial hardship, the peddler
sensed the opportunity and against a promise of handsome margin,
roped him into the trade of drug trafficking. The present task was his
first assignment when he was asked to board a flight and to reach Delhi
where he was paired up with Zubair. Together with this Zubair,
Naushad travelled to Attari border and received the drug consignment.
On his way back to Mumbai via Delhi, he was apprehended.
PROFILE OF ACCUSED ABDUL SATTAR @ SHERU:
Accused Mohammad Abdul Sattar @ Sheru was born at Cheetah Camp,
Mumbai in 1988. His father used to work as a plumber and being an
alcoholic, has been bed ridden for the last 11 years. Sheru grew up in
adverse financial circumstances. He has studied till 9th standard from
4
Ideal High School, Junior College, Custom Road, Trombay and
thereafter, left studies to help his family. He worked as a driver in
Voltas Company, Parel for around 2 years and thereafter, started plying
an auto. In August 2013, one of his friends had introduced him to one
Karim @ Setha Bhai, also a resident of Cheetah Camp, Trombay.
Gradually, he became a close friend of Setha Bhai and one day, this
Setha bhai told Sheru about his racket of drug trafficking and the huge
profits that he was earning from it. Sheru requested Setha bhai to
involve him in the drug racket as he wanted to earn easy money. In
October 2013, Setha Bhai had sent him to Delhi along with one another
member of the cartel to collect heroin. For this trip, he was paid
handsomely. Thereafter, he came to Delhi on many other occasions on
the direction of Setha Bhai for drug trafficking. In April 2014, Sheru
had introduced his friend Sajid to Setha Bhai and Setha had roped in
Sajid in the cartel. Since Sajid was having a passport, Setha Bhai used
to send Sajid to Kuwait along with drugs neatly concealed in baggage.
Gradually, Sheru became a trusted lieutenant of Setha Bhai and on
17/05/2014, he and Setha Bhai had sent Sajid & Noushad (both
arrested) to Delhi via flight to collect drugs from Amritsar, Punjab.
When Sajid and Noushad did not return to Mumbai after collecting 25
Kgs of contraband from Attari, Setha Bhai got suspicious and along
with Sheru, came to Delhi to look for Sajid and Noushad. In Delhi, they
collected a consignment of 5 Kgs heroin from a Sikh in Paharganj area
and while they had gone to Punjabi Bagh to collect the remaining
consignment, they were apprehended.

worked there for 4 years and returned to Mumbai as a deportee in 2010.
Thereafter, he opened a Kiryana Shop in Cheetah Camp, Mumbai

drugs cases. They both are operating from jail through conduits/carriers
5
like himself and others. He was also arrested for possessing drugs in
Kuwait after being jailed for 6 months, was deported to India.
While he was in Kuwait, his drug lord employers had introduced
him with one Khalid, r/o Pakistan who had tasked him for trafficking
drugs from Delhi to Mumbai in lieu of handsome profits. After being
deported to India, he renewed his association with Khalid and started
drug trafficking between Delhi and Mumbai. Since October 2013, he has
trafficked a huge quantity of drugs between Delhi and Mumbai as an
associate of Khalid and other Indian origin drug lords presently in
Kuwaiti jails. With expanding business, he roped in Sheru, Sajid,
Noushad (arrested) and many other carriers and also started trafficking
drugs between India and Sri Lanka and Kuwait. In the latest incident,
when Sajid and Noushad did not return to Mumbai after collecting 25
Kgs of contraband from Attari, he got suspicious and along with Sheru,
came to Delhi to look for Sajid and Noushad. In Delhi, they collected a
consignment of 5 Kgs heroin from a Sikh in Paharganj area and while
they had gone to Punjabi Bagh to collect the remaining consignment,
they were apprehended.
Further investigation of the case is in progress. Efforts are being
made to identify and apprehend the other members of the syndicate
especially Khalid of Pakistan and also the supplier of the contraband
who had delivered the drugs at the Attari border as well as in Delhi.
