NCB seizes Rs 9.2 crore assets of ‘prime accused’ in transnational drugs trafficking case from Noida

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Sunday said it has attached a flat and a factory premises worth ₹9.20 crore in Uttar Pradesh’s Noida of a “prime” accused involved in a 2024 transnational drugs trafficking case linked to a Mexican cartel.

The agency said in a statement that it had recently secured a confirmation on the attachment from the designated competent authority and administrator constituted under the Smugglers and Foreign Exchange Manipulators (Forfeiture of Property) Act and the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.

The case pertains to the seizure of more than 95 kg of amphetamine and the unearthing of a clandestine narcotics manufacturing laboratory in Noida near Delhi in October last year.

Five people, including a Tihar Jail warden, a Mexican national part of a drug cartel operating from that country, a Mumbai-based chemist and two Delhi-based businessmen, were arrested by the NCB then.

The agency, as part of the probe, attached immovable assets of the “prime accused” in the case.

These include a luxury apartment in Jaypee Greens residential society and a factory premises in Kasna Industrial Area of Gautam Budh Nagar (Uttar Pradesh), which were “acquired using proceeds from international narcotics trafficking”, the NCB said.
