Nigerian man held for smuggling cocaine worth Rs 25 crore at Delhi airport
Monday, 16 September 2024 A Nigerian national was detained at New Delhi's international airport for attempting to smuggle cocaine worth Rs 25 crore into India. After arriving from Dubai on September 7, he expelled a total of 84 capsules containing the drug. The seized narcotics weighed 1,660 grams and tested positive for cocaine. The suspect has been taken into custody.
In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine.
