The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) Sleuths on Sunday, October 17, arrested two Nigerian women who were linked to the seizure of 530 grams of cocaine in Kochi, Kerala, India.

The DRI official stated that the value of the seized cocaine is estimated to be around Rs 5.5 crore in the international market.

Sleuths later discovered from the carrier about the second accused, another Nigerian woman, Ifeoma Queen Anozie (33), who is based in India and has been there for over four years now.

Anozie lived in the outskirt of Mumbai and she coordinates with the carrier about the contraband supply and the carrier’s travel.

According to the report, the information was kept secret so as not to raise any suspicion and also to arrest the second victim.

Anozie was later contacted through a text to come for a meet-up with the carrier in a hotel which she complied with but was however arrested on arrival.

The Nigerian women were later produced before the court and remanded for 14 days of judicial custody.
