Police in Rajasthan’s Hanumangarh district have arrested Avinash, also known as Goglu, suspected of running an international drug network that funneled chitta from the Pakistan border.
Hanumangarh police officials announced the arrest of a man identified as Avinash, alias Goglu, during a raid linked to a drug‑trafficking investigation in the district. The operation, carried out by the local crime branch, resulted in the suspect being taken into custody without incident.
Investigators say Avinash was part of a broader inter‑state network that sourced the narcotic known locally as chitta from routes crossing the Pakistan border. The seized intelligence points to a systematic supply chain that moved the drug across state lines before reaching markets in Rajasthan.
Senior police spokesperson confirmed that the case is being forwarded to the state anti‑narcotics cell for further probing and that legal proceedings will commence shortly. Authorities have urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity related to drug smuggling.
