Cheeta-led gang transferred Rs 6-crore drug money to Hizbul Mujahideen: Police

The interrogation of Ranjit Singh Rana, alias Cheeta — the kingpin in the 532-kg heroin seizure case — and his aides by the police has revealed that they had transferred Rs 6-crore drug money to the terror outfit Hizbul Mujahideen during the past five years.

Officials privy to investigations said Cheeta and his accomplices had been in direct link with Pakistan’s spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) for the smuggling of heroin from across the border, and for transferring the drug money to the terror outfit.

They said the gang members had cleared five drug consignments through Attari-Wagah border before the seizure of 532-kg heroin.

The officials said the police have also identified around 10 more members of the gang which will be nabbed soon. Some of them are from Tarn Taran, Ferozepur and Jalandhar districts, they added.
