The accused confessed to police that they bought ganja from suppliers Kola Anand alias Bujji and Bal Reddy. They were taking ganja to Hyderabad to sell locally. Rohit Raju said. Police would henceforth check all private buses passing through the district thoroughly to prevent ganja smuggling, he said.
The SP asked private travel operators to inform police if they found any passengers suspicious, otherwise, their involvement would be suspected if ganja was seized in their vehicles. Focus was also being laid on local consumption of ganja, besides its smuggling and places where the youths were consuming psychotropic substances in the district, he noted.
