A drug supplier, who was wanted in two separate cases involving heroin worth Rs 8 crore, was nabbed by the police in Delhi’s Mahaveer Enclave, the police said on Sunday.

According to the police, Tushar (31), who runs a boutique and resides in Mahaveer Enclave, was arrested from his residence after being declared a proclaimed offender in two separate cases registered against him under the NDPS Act earlier this year.

“The accused had been declared a proclaimed offender in an FIR dated February 11, 2025 by Rohini Court. In this case, 258 grams of heroin had been recovered. He was also declared a proclaimed offender in FIR of January 30, 2025 by the Karkardooma Courts, on October, 17, 2025, where 512 grams of heroin had been recovered,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Harsh Indora.

The police said they received a tip-off on November 21 regarding a man, who was allegedly involved in supplying narcotics across Delhi-NCR.

“With the help of technical surveillance, the location of the accused was traced to Gali No 5 at Mahaveer Enclave, and a raid was conducted,” DCP Indora said.

During questioning, Tushar confessed to have been part of a gang that procured and supplied heroin in Delhi-NCR, said police. The accused allegedly ran a boutique at Mahaveer Enclave to conceal the criminal activities he was involved in.

Police records show Tushar had five other cases registered against him under the NDPS Act and the IPC, dating back to 2016, all registered at Crime Branch and local police stations in Delhi.
