- The Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau’s EAGLE Force carried out multi-location operations on June 15 that detained 19 suspects and found 14 tested positive for THC as authorities focused on two alleged peddlers tied to supplies from Goa, Bengaluru and Odisha.
- Investigators have sent blood and urine samples to the Forensic Science Laboratory, traced customer payment transfers of roughly Rs 3 lakh, and referred identified users to de-addiction centres while pursuing named absconding suppliers Karthik, Pruthvi and Vijay.
