Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Police have busted an interstate ganja supply racket that allegedly used Speed Post services to deliver cannabis consignments to customers across the country. One person, Satyam Mishra, a native of Jharkhand, has been arrested in connection with the case.

The racket came under the scanner after the police kept two Hyderabad-based suspects, Sushant Vyas and Laddu, under surveillance. The investigation subsequently led to the identification of the larger interstate network and Mishra’s arrest.

Police have registered two cases in connection with the racket and are continuing the investigation to trace the remaining accused and identify other members of the network.
