<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: In a major breakthrough for Indian security and intelligence agencies, Salim Dola, a high-ranking member of the international drug mafia and a close associate of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim<\/a>, was deported to India early this morning. Dola, who was recently apprehended in Istanbul, Turkey, following a high-stakes coordinated operation between Indian and international intelligence wings, arrived at the Delhi Technical Airport under heavy security on a special aircraft.Authorities state that Dola has been a pivotal figure in the underworld\u2019s narcotics trade, orchestrating a transnational synthetic drug empire estimated to be worth over Rs 5,000 crore. His deportation marks a significant victory in dismantling the D-Company\u2019s global distribution network, which has long been under the radar of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the Mumbai Police.Upon his arrival in the national capital, Dola was immediately taken into custody by intelligence officials and is currently undergoing intensive interrogation at an undisclosed location. <\/p>\n Poll<\/p>\n In your opinion, what is the most effective way to reduce drug trafficking?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n He is expected to be handed over to the Mumbai Police or the NCB shortly for further legal proceedings related to multiple pending cases involving drug trafficking and money laundering. This high-profile deportation follows the recent capture of several of his key associates and is being viewed as a decisive blow to the organized drug syndicates operating across Indian borders.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
