Man smuggling cocaine worth Dh17 million from Doha in superhero comics arrested in Bengaluru

In a massive drug bust, authorities in Bengaluru, the tech capital of India, seized more than 4kg of cocaine, valued at around Rs 400 million (Dh17.05 million) concealed inside superhero comics and magazines carried by an Indian passenger travelling from Doha to Bengaluru. The seizure took place after Directorate of Revenue Intelligence's (DRI) Bengaluru Zonal Unit intercepted an Indian male passenger who had arrived from Doha in the early hours at the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA). Officers grew suspicious upon noticing that two comic books in the passenger's luggage were unusually heavy. A detailed examination revealed white powder hidden within the covers of the magazines. Tests confirmed the substance to be cocaine. The large amount of drugs was seized under the provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, according to India's Ministry of Finance. The male passenger was arrested under the NDPS Act.
