Hyderabad police arrest of two persons with ganja at Secunderabad has highlighted continued enforcement against drug movement in the city. The police arrested two individuals and seized 6.25 kilograms of ganja during an operation carried out on Sunday. The action followed a specific tip off and took place within the limits of Secunderabad, according to official information.
The Commissioner’s Task Force North team carried out the operation after receiving credible inputs. Acting swiftly, the team intercepted the suspects at Secunderabad railway station. The police identified the arrested persons as Gopal Dalai, aged 28, and Saroj Kumar Dalai, aged 20. Both are residents of Odisha. During the checking process, officers recovered 6.25 kilograms of ganja from their possession.
According to the police, the duo had purchased the ganja from some persons in Odisha. They then transported the contraband to Hyderabad with the intention of selling it in the city. Based on the information received, the Task Force team kept watch and later caught them at the railway station. The police seized the ganja on the spot and took both accused into custody for further action.
Meanwhile, police officials stated that the arrest reflects continued monitoring of transport routes, especially railway stations. Secunderabad railway station remains a sensitive location due to frequent movement of people and goods. Therefore, the Task Force teams regularly conduct surveillance based on intelligence inputs. In this case, timely information helped officers prevent the ganja from reaching the local market.
Later, the police completed preliminary formalities following the seizure. They recorded details related to the accused and the recovered ganja. The seized contraband weighed 6.25 kilograms, as confirmed by officials. The accused were then handed over to the concerned police station for further legal procedures as per law.
The Hyderabad police have been conducting similar operations to curb the supply of ganja and other drugs. Such arrests also underline the focus on inter state transport of narcotics. However, the police did not disclose further details about the source network in Odisha or possible local contacts in the city.
At present, the case remains under investigation. Police officials are expected to question the accused further to gather more information related to the transport and intended sale of the ganja. The Hyderabad police arrest at Secunderabad once again signals strict action against drug related offences in the city.
