Contraband found in waste bin; 90 g of drug seized from same flat a day ago; five arrested
A day after seizing 90 grams of MDMA from a flat at Vazhakkala here, busting a five-member racket, excise officials made an even bigger seizure of 1.85 kg of the premier party drug worth over ₹13 crore from the same flat on Friday. The contraband was found hidden in a waste bin in the flat. “We have launched a detailed probe into the incident, which probably has international ramifications,” said N. Ashok Kumar, deputy excise commissioner, Ernakulam. The racket is suspected to have rented multiple apartments, some of them in fake addresses, for their operations, making it difficult to trace them.More Related News
