DU alumnus Sagar is connected with students from different universities and other educational institutions through Snapchat, Telegram and WhatsApp and other social media platforms.

Sachin and Sagar used to deliver drugs as per the demand. The accused were doing drug business by forming groups on many social media platforms.

Police interrogation revealed that Nishant used to do packaging work as soon as orders came on social sites and WhatsApp. The accused used to seal ganja in wrappers of companies like Flipkart and Amazon. After this, Harsh used to become a delivery boy and take him to the destination on bike or scooty. Harsh has previously driven an app-based bike taxi, so he also knows the routes of the city. No one would suspect him as he was dressed as a delivery boy of an e-commerce company.
