Traffickers opt for stopovers in Gulf countries or Sri Lanka, concealing contraband in their hand luggage: Officials
FOLLOWING increased scrutiny by Indian enforcement agencies, drug traffickers from foreign countries have started choosing roundabout flights, taking a stopover in Gulf countries or Sri Lanka.
Additionally, mules have also started concealing drugs in their hand baggage instead of check-in luggage; this was evident in the Chennai Customs' bust of 5.6kg of cocaine from two Indian passengers who came from Ethiopia and another recent case of hydroponic ganja trafficked from Thailand.
According to official sources, drug trafficking gangs have been stung by the series of seizures of narcotics made by the Customs, Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) and Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) at India's airports.

So You Think You are an Empath?
In this epoch of information overload, we watch a thousand crises unfold every day, where the sacred mixes with the profane at top speed, where the latest war updates are followed in quick succession by clips on how to wear a mekhela chador the proper way, how to make naan on an overturned tawa, what Ji Chang Wook said at the Gucci launch. This is popcorn for the brain, a topic I have addressed in an earlier column; we ingest everything, gulp it down, then move quickly on to the next snippet. Who really has the time to linger?
