Deputy Superintendent of Police Rajesh Chandra said Lahiri was selling drugs in Goa for the last three years. He usually procured narcotic drugs from Edmund Dilip in north Goa at a low price and sold the same to customers in Goa and other places in the country at higher prices. For the last few months, the drug business in Goa was not going well and he decided to start peddling drugs in Hyderabad, the DSP said.

The police caught Lahiri red-handed while he was selling drugs to customers near Ashoka Engineering College.
