An alleged drug trafficking kingpin having links with the Dawood Ibrahim syndicate was detained by Turkish agencies in Beylikdüzü and deported to India on Tuesday (April 28, 2026).

“Zero tolerance against the narco syndicate. The @narcoticsbureau today made a major breakthrough in securing the return of notorious drug trafficker Mohammad Salim Dola from Türkiye. Under the Modi government’s mission to ruthlessly smash drug cartels, our anti-narcotics agencies have extended their reach across borders through a robust network of global agencies. Now, no matter where they hide, no place is safe for drug kingpins,” Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on X.
