Mumbai: Women peddlers dominate drug peddling scene

Mumbai | Tuesday | 18th June, 2019

Summary:

With technological advancements, drug peddlers and smugglers have definitely come out with smarter ways to trade drugs while escaping arrests. Recently, a non-governmental organisation (NGO) had filed a complaint against seven women, who were allegedly running a drug smuggling syndicate. In only three months, the Bandra Police have taken action against seven women peddlers, who were trading drugs in areas like Mahim, Bandra, Kurla, Sion Koliwada, Dadar, Malvani, Shahunagar, and other slum areas. The police say Bandra gives peddlers geographical advantage; it is an area where they can't be caught easily. Women drug dealers, whose husbands or male relatives were arrested for running the same business have gradually taken their positions..
