Actor's son confesses to earning Rs1.5 million a week selling drugs on Snapchat

Police arrested actor Sajid Hassan's son, Sahir Hassan, along with three others during a raid in Karachi’s Defense area as part of an ongoing investigation into the murder of 23-year-old Mustafa Aamir, who went missing in January.

During interrogation, Sahir Hassan admitted to selling drugs via Snapchat for the past two years, earning approximately Rs 1.5 million weekly, according to The Express Tribune. He further revealed key figures involved in the illegal drug trade, including businessmen, politicians, and other influential personalities.

He described the drug distribution system as highly organized, dismissing the idea that dealers approach students directly. "It is wrong to assume that we go to educational institutions to sell drugs. Instead, students place orders through an online mobile app, and deliveries are made to specific locations," he disclosed.

According to Sahir, dealers first befriend students and introduce them to weed. "Initially, only a few students buy, but within months, the number of buyers increases significantly," he explained.

SSP Shoaib Memon confirmed that two major weed supply groups operate in Karachi. "One group smuggles weed illegally from California, while the other sells Iranian weed," he stated. Following the dismantling of the network involving Mustafa Aamir and Sahir Hassan, "50 percent of weed sales in the city have stopped, making it less accessible to users," he added.

Additionally, SSP Memon revealed that 20 key drug suppliers have gone into hiding, and law enforcement is intensifying its crackdown on the Iranian weed group. "None of the accused have fled the country," he assured.

Sahir Hassan admitted to purchasing drugs worth crores through courier services, paying Rs 4-5 lakh weekly for deliveries, as reported by Express Tribune. He also disclosed that the drug money was deposited into his father’s manager’s account. Furthermore, he revealed that he had worked as a model for five years and had been using weed for 13 years.

Investigators confirmed that both Sahir Hassan and Mustafa Aamir were among Karachi’s leading drug dealers, even utilizing the dark web for transactions.

These revelations have exposed the scale of the illegal drug trade in the city, prompting authorities to intensify operations and dismantle major networks.
