Japanese Cops Arrest Iranian Drug Dealer

FTV’s “Super News” embeds a reporter with narcotics “G-men” in Nagoya to see them take down a foreign drug dealer:
During the day, Nagoya’s Central Park may seem like a nice place to take one’s kids. However, according to word of the street, at night it becomes a place where “rough-looking” Middle Easterners deal drugs. FTV sends an undercover reporter there to confirm the stories. He asks two foreigners if he can buy drugs, and they tell him the dealer isn’t around. They get suspicious about his bag (which contains a hidden camera) and they quickly leave the area.
Later, FTV joins a group of cops as they arrest an Iranian drug dealer. The 37-year-old man sells stimulants on the street, and they’ve been investigating him for months to figure out his routine. After arresting him, they cannot find any drugs in his car. However, the inspectors happen to know the location of his stash. They retrieve it, finding drugs such as marijuana and MDMA. Although the man initially claimed he had no connection to drug dealing, he has since admitted his guilt.
According to the program, the man was part of as Iranian drug dealing organization (see the diagram at the top of this post). He carried out street level deals while several other people higher up on the food chain handled the supply of drugs and the communication with customers.
