Police recently dismantled a sophisticated drug trafficking operation by apprehending Damanpreet, a former student of Punjabi literature at Panjab University, Chandigarh. Operating across Chandigarh, Panchkula, and Kalka, Damanpreet orchestrated a methodical system where he procured drugs from dealers in border districts without upfront payments.
Damanpreet utilized his network and reputation to procure drugs, which he then sold to known addicts, keeping a portion of the profits. The dealers initially supplied small amounts of drugs, gradually increasing the quantity based on sales performance. Despite undergoing drug rehabilitation in 2020, financial pressures allegedly drove Damanpreet back into drug trafficking to support his family.
