Biggest seizure of Ketamine in India

Ketamine Export Concealed As Prayer Items To Malaysia Foiled
December 15, 2007 - bernama.com

NEW DELHI, Dec 15 (Bernama) -- The Indian Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) foiled an attempt by an Indian exporter to ship out Ketamine concealed as prayer items, worth nearly RM10 million in the international market, to Malaysia Friday.

About 100 kg of the banned drug was stashed in three cartons among several other items like "Kungumam" (vermilion powder), brass vessels and prayer items, which were found together with 308 different cartons, meant to be shipped to Malaysia.

The banned drug was packed in 100 aluminum foil packets weighing 1kg each.

"So far, this is the biggest seizure of Ketamine in India. The suspect admitted that he was involved in the export of goods like textile and pooja (prayer) items for the past 10 years in the name of export companies started by him," DRI additional director-general Dr P. Babu said in a press statement released Saturday.

He said the suspect declared in the consignment note that the goods were prayer items from a Chennai-based export company.

Based on feedback, intelligence sleuths from the unit intercepted the consignment at the Container Freight Station in Chennai where the exporter was also present.

Babu said the suspect admitted that he was involved in similar exports of the drug in the past and was now being interrogated.

Ketamine is not listed under India's Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, which makes it easier for people to obtain the substance.

Nicknamed "party drug", Ketamine is an animal anaesthetic but has become a popular drug among party-goers because of its quick effect.

This year alone, the DRI in Chennai seized 360 kg of Ketamine worth RM36 million in street value and nine suspects were arrested.

I think he is just surprised that the reporter claimed special K was referred to as "party drug"... or maybe that the reporter didn't explain that it wasn't only an anesthetic...

lol
