In this action, 418 grams of cocaine and 925 MDMA (Ecstasy) tablets have been recovered, whose estimated market value is around Rs 5 crore. Two foreign nationals have been arrested.
The WR-II team of the Crime Branch received secret information on 2 December 2025 that Frank, a Nigerian national (previously accused in NDPS cases) was supplying banned psychotropic substances and MDMA in South Delhi.
Under the direction of DCP Crime Branch Harsh Indora, a team led by Inspector Akshay Gehlot under the supervision of ACP Rajpal Dabas started technical and physical surveillance. After a long struggle, Frank Victus was arrested from Hari Vihar, Kakarola Road. 418 grams of cocaine and 910 MDMA tablets were recovered from him.
During interrogation, Frank revealed that he had come to India in 2012 on a business visa to export clothes. In 2015, NCB arrested him in the NDPS case, the passport was deposited in the court. Came out on bail in 2024. In need of money he contacted old acquaintance Alo Chukwu (big drug dealer) based in Nigeria.
Aloe entrusted him with the work of drug supply in Delhi. A Nigerian woman delivered cocaine and ecstasy tablets in gift packs when she was going to give them to an Indian in Mayapuri when she was caught.
Investigation through Frank's phone and revelations revealed that the source is also a Nigerian, who lives in Mehrauli. The team raided there and arrested Sunday Otu. 15 MDMA tablets were recovered from his rented room. Sunday told that he had come into the clothing business in 2015, but due to losses he took up drug business.
Alo Chukwu entrusted him with giving instructions to Frank. On December 2, he was coordinating between the two. After Frank's arrest, he kept changing places and recently shifted to Mehrauli. He had supplied cocaine and ecstasy to Frank the previous month. The kingpin of the syndicate is in Nigeria, an African woman makes deliveries in Delhi.
