A joint operation conducted by a federal civil intelligence agency and Ferozabad police station has led to the arrest of a suspected drug dealer involved in supplying narcotics to school students in different parts of the city.

According to police, the suspect was identified as Faizan, son of Nadeem.

Police said that the accused was involved in selling hashish to students in Soldier Bazaar, Garden, Bahadurabad, and surrounding areas of Karachi.

The suspect had previously been arrested and later changed his personal mobile phone number to avoid detection, using different phone numbers for drug dealing activities.

During the interrogation, the suspect disclosed that he used to obtain narcotics from a supplier identified as Waheed Ramzani. Later, one of his friends, Ibrahim, an electrician, introduced him to another alleged drug supplier named Nasir, from whom he continued purchasing drugs.

Investigators said the suspect was actively supplying narcotics to students near educational institutions in areas including Masoom Shah Masjid, Tharo Lane, and Garden.

During the operation, the authorities recovered 1,250 grammes of high-quality hashish and 25 grammes of weed from his possession. A case has been registered against the suspect at the Ferozabad police station.
