New Delhi: India has secured the return of fugitive drug kingpin Virender Singh Basoya from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Union home minister Amit Shah said on Friday.
“Creating a new milestone in the policy of zero tolerance against narcotics, the NCB secured the return of fugitive drug kingpin Virender Singh Basoya from the UAE,” he wrote on X.
He also pointed out that “Modi govt is relentlessly tracking down drug traffickers hiding abroad and destroying their entire ecosystem with a ruthless approach.”
“By tracing the criminal through a top-to-bottom and bottom-to-top approach, our agencies have once again proven that no matter where drug traffickers hide, they cannot escape the long arm of Indian law,” he said.
Basoya has been accused of masterminding an international drug syndicate.
