A total of 91,000 tablets of different psychotropic drugs and over 135 kilograms of loose tablets have been seized, the bureau said in a press statement. NCB’s deputy director general Rajesh Nandan Srivastava said that Dipu Singh supplied psychotropic drugs to customers from various countries after receiving orders on dark net websites. The dark net is that part of the internet that can be accessed with the help of certain software. Website and content on the dark net cannot be accessed through regular browser or indexed by popular search engine. Transactions made over the dark net, usually through cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, are extremely difficult to detect.
