According to officials from the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF), the operation began with the arrest of one Nigerian national, who, during questioning, revealed the involvement of his fellow foreign associates.
The suspect’s disclosure led to raids, and five more Nigerians were arrested near a hotel in Sector G-13.
