Drug peddler arrested from Nepal border

Zaveri had been granted interim bail for 10 days starting from May 9, but instead of returning to jail, he went into hiding.

The crime branch team of Surat apprehended him in Haviganda, Kishanganj in Bihar, just before he could cross the Nepal border.

It was revealed during the investigation that Zaveri had reached the Nepal border via Mumbai and had intended to flee to another foreign country. The operation was led by Surat police.

Salman Zaveri, also known as Aman Mohammad Hanif Zaveri, had previously come under the police’s radar in September 2020 when they discovered six packets containing various types of MD drugs in his car.

The seizure included 1 kg and 11.82 grams of MD drugs worth Rs 1,01,18,2000, along with five mobile phones valued at Rs 38,000, Rs 12,710 in cash, two digital weight scales, and a car worth Rs 2.50 lakh.

Following his arrest, the crime branch lodged him in Lajpore jail.

The matter is still under investigation.
