hindustantimes.com

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) is intensifying efforts to capture Haji Salim, a major drug trafficker known as the "Lord of Drugs." This operation, part of 'Operation Sagar Manthan,' aims to dismantle his extensive drug trafficking network linked to narco-terrorism. Salim's syndicate is believed to smuggle large quantities of narcotics across multiple countries, including India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Authorities have seized nearly 4,000 kilograms of drugs tied to his cartel and arrested several individuals in connection with these operations. Despite previous seizures and arrests, Salim continues his illegal activities. His network reportedly uses maritime routes for drug transport, often marked with specific symbols. Intelligence suggests he has connections to other criminal figures and receives support from external agencies.
