Dehradun: The poison of intoxication is also spreading gradually in the quiet fans of Uttarakhand. A network of drugs is spreading not only in cities, but also in villages, towns and border areas. In this sequence, the State Special Task Force (STF) has exposed a drug syndicate, which was preparing dangerous drugs like MDMA in Pithoragarh and reaching big cities like Mumbai. At the same time, in the Vikasnagar area of Dehradun, the police caught two youths smuggling smacks.

STF has caught a stock of dangerous drugs like MDMA. The discharge of this drugs network began on 31 May from Thane region of Mumbai, where a large amount of drugs were recovered. After this, the scope of investigation increased and on July 11, the consignment associated with this network was caught in Champawat.
