New York's Finest

A team of NYPD narcotics cops is under investigation for arresting four men in Queens club after surveillance tapes revealed the cops never bought drugs from them, The Post has learned.

COP TEAM PROBED IN DRUG 'FRAME' SHAME

The stunning accusations stem from a "buy-and-bust" operation in January when undercover cops allegedly framed two brothers and their friends who were merely drinking beer and chatting inside Club Delicioso in Elmhurst.

The quartet was originally charged with selling two bags of cocaine worth $100.

But their ordeal ended Thursday when the charges were dropped, thanks to several hours of video surveillance shot inside and outside the club showing that the cops never even had contact with their "suspects."

Once again, immigrants are easily preyed upon.

But after all, if elected official do it all the time, why not the cops?

It just a matter of perspective and scale.
