The bust occurred after police intelligence lead officers to Bollarum where they intercepted two suspects. A total of 2.3 kilograms of marijuana was initially seized. Further investigation led to the arrest of Jwala Deepanshu Kumar, a food delivery executive, and Ravula Naresh alias Chintu, a scrap dealer, accused of being sub-peddlers responsible for local distribution in Balaji Nagar, Yapral, Alwal, Bollarum, and Trimulgherry.
