Three Nigerians Held For Peddling Drugs In India by dridowu: 12:02pm On Sep 13, 2015
CHANDIGARH: Three Nigerian nationals
were arrested for drug peddling in
Chandigarh on Saturday. The arrests
were made following a disclosure by
Harjit Singh, aka Lucky of Sector 45, a
drug addict and peddler who was
recently arrested.
Two of the three Nigerians had been
living in India without valid visa and
permission while a third was about to
complete his period of stay in the
country. Lucky was arrested on
September 6.
Police recovered about 120gm of heroin
worth around Rs 10 lakh in the
international market from the
possession of the Nigerian nationals,
who have been identified as Dennis
Azuka Okoye, Ekpelechukwu Johan and
Jackson Uzova.
Police said they were supplying heroin
in Chandigarh, Punjab and parts of
Haryana. They said the main points of
supply were discotheques and late
night clubs. The peddlers preferred to
visit Chandigarh during weekends.
Crime branch Inspector Gurmukh Singh
said, "During interrogation, Lucky
revealed the name of one Nigerian
based in Delhi through whom he used
to get heroin. Investigations were
conducted and a larger racket was
unearthed. Okoye was the foreign
national who used to supply heroin to
Lucky."
Sources said Johan, only one of the
accused to be living in India valid
documents, is also facing a trial for
drug peddling in Delhi. DSP (crime)
Jagbir Singh said at this stage, police
are focusing on suppliers and peddlers,
including some from the city. He said a
detail record of consumers and
customers is also being prepared for
further action.
The three accused were arrested from
different places. Okoye was arrested
near phase-2, Industrial Area and
about 50gm heroin was recovered
from his possession. Johan was
arrested from near ISBT-17 and about
35gm heroin was recovered from him.
Jackson was arrested from near 66KV
station and 35gm heroin was
recovered from his possession.
Joint interrogation of the three
Nigerian nationals revealed that they
entered India on tourist and business
visas but did not register with the
foreign registration office (FRO).
The development has raised serious
concerns about drug trade in the
Tricity, where incidents of drug abuse
among school and college students are
being reported constantly.

IGBO drug dealers need to be named and shamed before more of them die needless deaths.

IGBO people are being brainwashed into this drugs thing and education is the key yo stopping it...some of that education is tribal bashing.
