The Story in Brief
Hyderabad police arrested a 39-year-old man and seized 4.2 kg of ganja chocolates from him in Rangareddy district on Saturday. The State Task Force acted on a tip-off and apprehended Ajay Singh, a resident of Nanakramguda. In a separate operation, Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement (EAGLE) with Abdullapurmet police arrested a 30-year-old driver, Burse Narendra Srinivas, and seized 200 ml of hash oil worth Rs 2.5 lakh from the Outer Ring Road. Srinivas, a native of Prakasam district in Andhra Pradesh, had allegedly bought the oil from Odisha using Snapchat. He has five prior cases under NDPS Act registered against him in Meerpet and Saroornagar police stations. The supplier, Hari from Odisha, is absconding.
The Indian Opinion
There are two separate news items here, but they are being mixed together with repeats. The first is about 4.2 kg of ganja chocolates and 200 ml of hash oil. The real issue is not the novelty of drug forms but the ease of trafficking in Hyderabad. Instead of sensationalising 'ganja chocolates', the focus should be on the network behind it. The police have arrested a small fish, but the supplier is still absconding. Until the kingpins are caught, such seizures will just be symbolic. Let us track if EAGLE follows the trail to Odisha or lets it fade.
