Gurgaon: Ahead of New Year, a rave party busted in Gurgaon in which seven people have been arrested and 40 others detained by Haryana police.
Haryana police in a joint operation with the Narcotics Control Bureau busted a suspected Christmas-eve rave party being held at a farmhouse in Mewat district on the outskirts of Delhi.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (Mewat) Deepak Gehlawat said that while close to 40 people have been detained after night-long raids, seven have been arrested under the provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.
Earlier, officials from the Delhi zone of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and Gurgaon police swooped down at the event location on the border of Gurgaon and Mewat on the intervening night of December 24-25 and seized a variety of party drugs, stimulant narcotics and liquor bottles from the spot.
The farmhouse where the party was being held is about 50-kms from Delhi border.
"The operation was conducted after getting specific intelligence that a rave party is being held. We contacted Gurgaon police and the operation was conducted jointly," NCB Zonal Director (Delhi) Rohit Sharma said.

The case was then transferred to Mewat police as the venue of the said party was found to be in village Bisar under the Tauru police station area of the said district.
Gehlawat said blood samples of all those detained, including a 46-year-old Swiss national, are being examined.
"About 50 people, including four girls have been detained by the raiding teams. Majority of those detained are under 30 years and they have been found to have been working in BPOs, even management companies and some are also students in institutions in Delhi and NCR region," a senior NCB officer said.
The raid was executed after the NCB received a tip-off about the party and the agency subsequently communicated it to Gurgaon Police after which the operation was launched with a team of about 35 officials fanning all around the half-built farmhouse, located about 8kms along a 'kuccha track' off the Manesar main road.
Piles of bags, sachets and polythene bags resembling those which contain medicines were seen lying around the venue after the operation.
