Gurgaon: The Anti-Narcotic Cell on Wednesday arrested two men for supplying narcotic tablets and codeine-based cough syrups — drugs that are highly regulated and restricted under the NDPS Act — to a medical store operator who does not have a valid licence to sell them.Police said the arrests were made during the investigation of an NDPS case after police recovered 2,250 Tramase-P tablets, 220 bottles of Cofrex cough syrup containing codeine and banned medical termination of pregnancy kits during a raid at Om Medical Store in Jharsa Chowk.The store operator, Deepak Nagpal, 37, an MBA graduate and resident of Madanpuri, was arrested after he failed to show proper documents for the drugs.During interrogation, Nagpal disclosed that he procured the medicines illegally from others and was selling them through his medical store without authorisation.The accused were identified as Mohit Rohilla alias Mowgli, 30, a resident of Gopal Nagar, and Himanshu Gupta, 30, a resident of Prem Nagar Mata Road, Sector 14, currently living in Sector 5. Mohit was arrested from Leisure Valley Park in Sector 29, while Himanshu was arrested from Sikanderpur.Himanshu, who runs a medical store in Gurgaon, supplied the drugs to Mohit, who passed them on to Nagpal.Investigators are now probing how Himanshu procures the drugs.“The accused will be produced before a local court and the suspects will be interrogated for further leads,” Sandeep Turan, police spokesperson, said.
