Mumbai police have arrested a former air-hostess and her accomplice for allegedly attempting to smuggle an estimated ₹30 lakh worth of mephedrone from Gujarat to Mumbai. The suspects, identified as former Malaysian Airlines cabin crew member Mansi Sayed and 20-year-old Sohail Suleman Shaikh, were taken into custody near the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway toll post.
The investigation uncovered that the pair had rented a car and traveled to Vadodara to retrieve the drugs, which were then transported back to Mumbai. The pair claimed they acquired the drug consignment from an unidentified woman near Vadodara railway station. According to police, Sayed has a history of drug dealing dating back to 2015, having previously been arrested in Madhya Pradesh in 2021 for possession of around 100 grams of drugs. Authorities are still searching for the woman who allegedly supplied the drugs to the accused.
