DNM related bust in India: 1400 tabs if LSD from a US Vendor

My understanding is that someone snitched on these kids, they got arrested and then sang for the cops. Sad thing is the laws in india are fucked up, they will be behind bars for 20 years atleast without any bail.

Whats even worse is the article says they were arrested "under the influence of LSD".. wtf

And apparently they provided clues about "their supplier in US". Much lol.

The anti-narcotics cell of the city police arrested five people, including two students of two reputed colleges in the western suburbs, for drug trafficking and recovered psychedelic drug LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) worth Rs 70 lakh on Wednesday.

The two students have been identified as Arbaz Khan, a first year student of BMS and Chirag Jain, a TYBCom student. The others arrested are a real estate agent, Farhan Khan, an associate TV producer, Admiya Modi, and a computer engineer, Laxman Rajan. Police said they sold the contraband in the market. "They were also under the influence of LSD,'' an official said. All of them have been booked under the stringent Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. The offence attracts a sentence of 10 to 20 years.

LSD in the form of acid stamps, which come in sheets similar to postal stamps, has to be placed sublingual (under the tongue). It gives a kick that lasts 12 hours after peaking in two to three hours, officials said. Police said the gang has been smuggling the contraband from the US through courier services. Police said LSD is colourless and odourless, which makes it difficult to detect during scanning.

The payments for the same were made through Bitcoins, a form of virtual currency. The government on Tuesday said Bitcoin is not authorised by RBI and any transction in it could result in breach of anti-money laundering provisions.

Acting on a tip-off, police inpsector Sunil Mane of the anti-narcotics cell laid a trap on Link Road, Malad, and arrested the five suspects. Police have recovered 1,400 blots of LSD worth Rs 70 lakh. "Our team had received information that this gang has been actively involved in smuggling and supplying LSD or party drugs to several others including celebrities," said Mane. Police claimed that the accused have provided clues on their supplier in the US.

Deputy commissioner of police (ANC) Shivdeep Lande said that were likely to arrest more people in the case.

This is why I made a post earlier that no vendor should ship to India. I personally wont send a damn thing there anymore. Even to known people, the drama that follows is just not what I signed up for, sorry.

Anyone who has been around this sub knows that almost every Indian uses shit opsec, and evidently it translates to maintaining shit opsec slinging irl too.

Any noob who is carrying 1400 tabs would know better, to keep his damn mouth shut and keep it low key. But looks like these assholes went and told on each other too after they were caught.

And they even gave clues about the vendor, fucking twats... all that does is make sure they have no chance later to deny the allegations. Wont surprise me to know they even confessed to ordering.

Way to earn your time together behind bars, well fucking done.

All of them used shit OPSEC; even for IRL dealers. There is another report in the express, apparently they just caught one of these guys first and he lead them to the rest.

1400 tabs of acid = Rs 70 lakh = 7,000,000 Rupees = ~$100,000 USD... LE sure do like to stroke their dicks when they make a drug bust, don't they.

I wonder if u/indianlord has seen this shit. Maybe that's why American vendors don't send their product to India? Just a thought. Cuz whoever is at the end of this bust (the package receiver) is truly fucked now. Just my two Satoshi.

Good. Those Indians are insane. Look at the India DNM sub... they are all fucked. They go around accusing every single person of scamming and bitching about Americans. Do they even see where they live?
