Sikar Drug Trader Told To Join Probe

Solan : The State Narcotics and Crime Control Unit (SNCCU), Shimla, today issued a notice to Sikar-based wholesale drug dealer WB Medicose to join investigations on December 23 at their Shimla office.

The trader had come under the scanner after Baddi-based Zannet Pharmaceuticals proprietor had been arrested for illegally trading narcotic and psychotropic drugs worth Rs 100 crore in the last two years through fake bills and fake firms.

A team of the SNCCU led by DSP, Shimla, Dinesh Sharma, visited Sikar and pasted a legal notice outside WB Medicose shop at Gali number 03, Kacheri Market, Sikar.

Sharma said, “Investigations have revealed that Zannet Pharmaceuticals has sold drugs to WB Medicose and the trader has been directed to join investigations at the unit’s Shimla office on December 23. If he fails to turn up, action will be taken against him.”

SNCCU officials also visited the office of the Drug Control Administration in Rajasthan and sought details of his wholesale trading licence which was issued in 2017. His licence had been suspended in June this year for various violations and he has been untraceable for the last several months, said the officials.

The officials will also visit his residence tomorrow. He is believed to be a vital link in the Rs 100 crore drug racket and it will help the officials to find out where the drugs had been diverted to.
