Several startling facts have come to fore during primary interrogation of fisherman Aziz Bhagadh, who was nabbed with 5 kg heroin in Sodsala village under Salaya police station of Devbhoomi Dwarka district yesterday and was handed over on remand to the ATS for further interrogation by a court today.
It has been revealed that Aziz had received 105 kg heroin ( 105 packets of 1 kg each in sea) from Pakistani smugglers. He had gone in the sea in his boat in the name of fishing and had received the consignment of heroin at a place in the sea at a distance of around 80 to 90 nautical miles from Salaya. He had taken around 5 kg of it with which he was caught while the remaining part was sent to northern states mainly Punjab.
An ATS official today said that Aziz was produced in the district and sessions court in Khambalia which allowed his remand till August 20. The total price of around 4.9 kg heroin recovered from him was 14.85 crores.
He said that various aspects of the case were under investigation.
Meanwhile, it is understood that the ATS could produce another culprit of the case Arif Sumra in the court later. Sumra along with some others had reportedly smuggled 105 kg Heroin worth over Rs 310 crores around 4 months ago via sea route and Mandvi coast.
The ATS is trying to nab the third man also who had allegedly supplied and sold most of the Heroin in Northern Indian states.
