The Special Intelligence and Investigation Branch (SIIB) of the customs had apprehended two men found in possession of MDMA (ecstasy) drugs with a market value Rs 4.5 crore. According to police, the accused Salman Khan allegedly worked as a broker and provided rented flats to Nigerians who were involved in a drug syndicate in Nallasopara.
The matter had come to light on April 8, when the customs officials received a tip-off, “We received information that a narcotic substance would arrive in a parcel from Belgium. We seized the parcel and found 2,314 grams of MDMA in it. The parcel was supposed to be picked up by Salman Khan,” said an officer. As the officials intended to nab the recipient of the contraband, they replaced the original parcel with a decoy and waited for the recipient to arrive.
