Mohali: Olympic medal
winning boxer Vijender Singh and fellow boxer Ram Singh are being called
in for questioning by the police after a drug-bust led to their names
being associated with the drug peddlar.
The recent series of events began on March 03 when a drug peddlar, Anup Singh Kahlon, was arrested with 540g of heroin. Upon further questioning Kahlon and Rocky, his partner in crime, mentioned the names of two boxers and claimed they had supplied them with drugs and heroin.
Further investigation uncovered a major international drug peddling racket as the police recovered 26 kg of heroin, worth around Rs 130 crore, in the traffickers` flat in Zirakpur, Mohali.
While Man Singh, Senior Superintendent of Police, overseeing the investigation, says that they are treading slowly and have no reason to believe the drug-traffickers, the two sportspersons will be called in for questioning as a summons is imminent.
The twist in the tale came when the police also discovered Vijender Singh`s wife`s car outside the same flat in Zirakpur, adding a loose link to the case. While no drugs were found in her car and the incident may just be a coincidence, what`s certain is that this is a major drug bust and the Punjab police may be able to break up a big international trafficking route.
