supari

Chewed Asian seed

Supari is the areca nut, chewed throughout South Asia as a mild stimulant, often wrapped in betel leaf with lime paste.

In Indian crime slang, supari means a contract killing or the payment for one—hiring someone to murder: He took supari on the businessman.

The connection may be the idea of a transaction wrapped up and handed over.
