The Delhi Police has executed one of the largest drug raids in the city’s history, confiscating more than 560 kilograms of cocaine valued at approximately Rs 2,000 crore, officials said.

A team from the Delhi Police Special Cell arrested four individuals in South Delhi’s Mehrauli and seized the shipment, which weighed over 565 kilograms.

According to officials, those apprehended intended to distribute the cocaine in Delhi and the National Capital Region.

The Special Cell team had been conducting investigations for over two months following a tip-off, which culminated in the operation just ahead of the festive season.
