Shimla police have intensified their efforts against interstate drug trafficking, resulting in the arrest of two significant suppliers, Akash from Chandigarh and Amandeep Singh from Amritsar. The arrests occurred on May 15, 2026, following the recovery of 11 grams of heroin from local suspects, which led investigators to trace the supply chain back to the accused. Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Abhishek stated that a case was registered under Sections 21 and 29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. In a separate incident, police had previously arrested three individuals in Rampur, Shimla district, with nine grams of heroin and used syringes, which also linked back to Singh. Since the beginning of 2026, Shimla police have dismantled 29 interstate narcotics networks, effectively disrupting drug supply chains across several Indian states. These operations are aimed at curtailing future trafficking activities and enhancing public safety.
