Mumbai police have detained a 31-year-old woman from Mira Road in connection with the financial transactions of a drug syndicate linked to a recent overdose death allegedly connected to a music concert. The arrest was made by the Vanrai police as part of an ongoing investigation that has now led to 11 individuals being taken into custody.
Authorities reported that the woman was involved in receiving online payments from individuals associated with the drug network. She is believed to have had connections with several members of the syndicate, including the main supplier who remains at large.
The drug distribution reportedly targeted attendees at various live events, with the syndicate using a network to facilitate sales and payments. Investigators revealed that a co-accused, Ayush Sahitya, transferred money to the woman after obtaining cash from other suspects, including Shubh Agrawal, Anand Patel, and Vineet Gerelani, who are alleged to have purchased the narcotics from him.
The police have confirmed that the probe continues as they work to dismantle the drug supply chain linked to the overdose incident. Further details about the ongoing investigation and potential additional arrests have not been disclosed.
