3,000 kg heroin seized in Gujarat exposes Taliban’s drug nexus
.Almost a month after the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, 3,000 kilograms of banned narcotics — heroin, was seized by the Indian law enforcement agencies at Gujarat’s Mundra Port. The investigators estimate that the drugs seized are worth Rs 21,000 crore in the international market and were shipped from Afghanistan
The development raised a serious question about Taliban’s promise to stop drug production and its trade using the soil of Afghanistan.
After taking control of Afghanistan, Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid on August 18 told the media in Kabul that his government was committed to stop the production of narcotics in the country.
“We want to assure our people and the international community that we will not allow the production of any narcotics. From this moment, nobody is allowed in any heroin trade or drug smuggling from Afghanistan,” Zabihullah Mujahid had said.
However, within a month, 3 tonnes of high-quality heroin, originating from Taliban-led Afghanistan, in two consignments reached Gujarat disguised as Talc stone.
