Kenyan brothers Baktash and Ibrahim Akasha were arrested in November 2014, along with Vijaygiri 'Vicky' Goswami and Pakistani citizen Gulam Hussein, at the end of a months-long sting by the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) which infiltrated the Mombasa-based organisation.
The men are accused of conspiring to import pure 'white crystal' heroin into the US at a knock-down price of around USD 10,000 a kilo. US officials believe the Akasha brothers are continuing the business of their late father, also named Ibrahim, who was described in a secret 2006 US diplomatic cable published by WikiLeaks as a 'drug baron'.
Goswami is believed to be married to former Bollywood actor Mamta Kulkarni. He was arrested in Mombassa in 2014 following a sting operation by Kenyan cops and the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). He was released on bail on the condition that he would stay in the country until a local court de cided on an extradition request by the US.
