Danish Chikna, who managed the drugs factory of gangster Dawood Ibrahim in Maharashtra’s Dongri has been arrested from Rajasthan’s Kota last night in a joint operation of Kota Police & NCB.

Police have seized drugs from his vehicle. 6 cases, including that of murder, are registered against him.

According to reports, a raid was conducted by a team of NCB officials in a dilapidated structure situated at Tantanpura Street in Dongri on Thursday. The dilapidated structure was being used by the gang to distribute drugs, such as charas, ganja, and codeine to consumers and other peddlers.

A few days ago, the agency also raided his residence and arrested his accomplice  Rafique Chand Shaikh.

"During the raid, we intercepted one Rafique Chand Shaikh and seized 2.684 kilograms of codeine-based cough syrup. Shaikh is a peddler working for Danish Merchant, alias Danish Chikna, a member of the Chikna Gang. Danish is a notorious drug trafficker in South Mumbai. “Chikna Gang is presently active and runs an organised drug network in Dongri and surrounding areas," said an NCB official, who is a part of the team that conducted the raid.

Police were on the lookout for Danish Chikna and his brother who is also into the drug trade and is considered to be a pioneer in introducing MD drugs in Dongri.
