NCB secures return of naco-peddler Virender Singh Basoya from UAE: Amit Shah

New Delhi, Aug 14: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has secured the return of fugitive drug kingpin Virender Singh Basoya from the UAE. In a post on X, Shah said, Modi govt is relentlessly tracking down drug traffickers hiding abroad and destroying their entire ecosystem with a ruthless approach. The NCB, he said, secured the return of Basoya from the UAE creating a ew milestone in the policy of zero tolerance against narcotics. 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's name had surfaced in a seizure of 500 grams of Mephedrone, a synthetic stimulant commonly known by street name meow meow, in Pune in 2024. The probe was later expanded to identify and dismantle the entire drug trafficking network resulting in the recovery of approximately 867 kg of Mephedrone from Pune and 970 kg from Delhi, taking the total recovery to approximately 1,837 kg of Mephedrone. The NCB Mumbai unit took over investigation and identified Basoya as the alleged mastermind based abroad who coordinated activities of the syndicate from foreign shores and smuggle out Mephedrone consignments from India to other countries. A major consignment of approximately 970 kg of Mephedrone, recovered in Delhi, was allegedly linked to preparations for export through courier channels associated with him. His role emerged as an important link connecting the domestic manufacturing and trafficking network with its overseas distribution channels, a statement from the Home Ministry said. His name also cropped up in a separate case of Delhi Police Special Cell relating to international cocaine trafficking. In October 2024, the Special Cell of Delhi Police busted a major drug trafficking cartel, leading to multiple seizures from godowns and other premises in Delhi, Hapur and Ghaziabad, as well as from a factory in Ankleshwar, Gujarat. The coordinated operations resulted in the recovery of more than 1,300 kg of cocaine, Mephedrone and hydroponic weed, it said. Investigation into the cartel revealed Basoya's alleged role in coordinating the procurement, transportation, storage and distribution of cocaine and other drugs, it said. The NCB launched Operation GLOBAL-HUNT, launched to identify, locate and pursue major narcotics traffickers and fugitives operating from overseas jurisdictions using international cooperation mechanisms, including Interpol Red Notices. Basoya repatriation from the UAE is one of the key achievements of the operation, it said. NCB Deputy Director General (operations) Neeraj Gupta told reporters here that Basoya escaped to Dubai just a day after the Pune police registered a case against him in 2014. Basoya is a ig kingpin of the drug trafficking network against whom an Interpol Red Notice was issued in November 2025, Gupta added. He said Basoya also faces a 2009 DRI case in which he had gone to jail and a charge sheet in this case is before the court.

DPL 2026: 'We Planned To Take The Match Deep,' Says Ashwini After Purani Dilli's Win Over North Delhi

North Delhi Strikers: Purani Dilli 6 batter Ashwini Chillar revealed that the team decided to take the match deep and remain in the competition after they pulled off a stunning last-over victory against North Delhi Strikers in the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2026 on Friday, recovering from a precarious position to snatch a thrilling four-wicket win. Reflecting on the memorable victory and his crucial contribution with the bat, Ashwini Chillar expressed his delight at getting the team over the line through calculated planning. Winning a match like this brings immense joy. We had a clear plan; if we wanted to win, we needed to take the game deep and keep wickets in hand till the end so everyone coming down could contribute 10 to 15 runs. That was my mindset, especially after coming out to bat early today, Chillar said after the match. Discussing the atmosphere within the squad and the mindset surrounding batting combinations, Chillar highlighted the team's readiness to seize key moments. In the initial matches, players like Anuj and Lakra were scoring the runs. The mindset in the dugout has always been that whenever any player gets an opportunity at a new position, they have to step up, make it count, and win the game for the team, he explained. Despite playing a crucial knock of 45 off 36 balls, Chillar admitted to a touch of disappointment at not staying until the very last ball to finish the chase himself. It was definitely disappointing. I couldnt reach my fifty or be there to hit the winning runs, so that part felt a bit sad, he added. Earlier in the match, North Delhi Strikers put up a competitive total of 186/6 in 20 overs after being put in to bat. Captain Sarthak Ranjan (59 off 37) and Yash Bhatia (59 off 41) stitched together a solid 61-run partnership, while Yash Dabas provided a late flourish with a quickfire 36 off 22 balls. It was definitely disappointing. I couldnt reach my fifty or be there to hit the winning runs, so that part felt a bit sad, he added.
