Karachi (HRNW – June 11, 2026): In a major blow to sophisticated narcotics networks, the District South Police have apprehended a high-profile, ‘Category-A’ listed drug dealer running an extensive online drug supply operation. The targeted raid was executed by the Darakhshan Police Station based on precise intelligence.
According to a statement issued by the spokesperson for SSP District South, Mahzoor Ali, the arrested kingpin has been identified as Shah Fahad, son of Shaheen Parvez.
Law enforcement officials recovered 1470 grams (nearly 1.5 kg) of high-grade Crystal Methamphetamine (ICE) along with a significant amount of cash generated from drug sales. The seized contraband was meticulously packaged in multiple boxes and plastic bags, prepared for immediate distribution.

During preliminary interrogations, the suspect made chilling disclosures regarding his operational methods.

The accused confessed to being a central dealer and distributor for Crystal Meth (Ice) and Cocaine (Coke) across the metropolis.
