Delhi HC Rejects Bail Plea of Ex-Cop in Drug Syndicate Case
A former police officer, Naresh Kumar, is in trouble.
The Delhi High Court refused to let him avoid arrest.
He's accused of running a drug operation.
Police say he got marijuana from other states, brought it to Delhi, and sold it.
The whole thing came to light when one of his gang members was caught and told the police about Kumar.
He's been avoiding arrest for a year and a half, and has been fired from his job on March 20.
Delhi High Court rejected the pre-arrest bail plea of former sub-inspector Naresh Kumar.
Kumar, accused of being the mastermind of a drug syndicate, was posted at the Anti-Extortion and Kidnapping Cell.
The case emerged when an arrested gang member identified Kumar as the main conspirator.
Kumar allegedly procured marijuana from Odisha and northeastern states.
He stored the contraband in Delhi and sold it to customers.
