They had established hideouts at Balole Nallah and used to operate from there. After the changed strategy of Samba Police, Noori and Tuna had been indulging in illicit heroin trafficking during midnight under the cover of darkness to escape from the clutches of Police. But, Samba Police had succeeded in seeing through their changed modus-operandi and had succeeded in arresting them.
During the course of investigation, it came to fore that Noori and Tuna were also involved in abetting, conspiring harbouring and financing narco-trafficking.
Noori and Tuna were arrested by SHO Bari Brahmana Sunil Sharma.
The SSP said that besides thirteen female heroin smugglers arrested by Samba Police, some more female smugglers are wanted in NDPS cases and they would be nabbed shortly.
