The Story in Brief
The Hindu reports that three brothers were arrested in Hyderabad after a police raid turned violent. The accused allegedly unleashed a Great Dane cross-breed on EAGLE Force teams, stabbed Inspector Mallesh with a screwdriver, and tried to escape across rooftops. One brother threatened suicide before being apprehended.
Police seized 14 kg of marijuana and an air gun from the brothers' home. The siblings operated a dead-drop network since 2025, earning around Rs 25 lakh. Investigators identified 203 consumers across five states; 100 have been arrested and 79 tested positive for marijuana. The probe is ongoing.
The Indian Opinion
This raid shows police getting smarter about digital drug networks, but the violence and scale of customers, from 19 to 54 years old, hint at a deeper addiction problem in Telangana. The narrative of easy police success misses that 103 consumers are still untested. The real test will be whether the financial trail reaches the suppliers behind these brothers.
