Two of them were identified as drug peddlers, while others were as consumers and addicts. The peddlers are — Sivva Rohan (24), a B Tech student, of Pinnavari Street in Warangal, and Penchikala Kasi Rao of Madhapur under Cyberabad Police commissionerate.

Officials announced that they seized dry ganja (500 grams worth Rs 5,000), LSD papers 15 (worth Rs 60,000), charas, which is a cannabis concentrate made from the resin of a live cannabis plant and is handmade in black colour (approximately -15 grams worth Rs 75,000), cocaine in white colour (approximately 1.5 grams worth Rs 22,500) and MDMA pills (Methylenedioxy-methamphetamine) also called as Ecstasy/Molly – 36, (worth Rs 1,44,000), weed oil/liquid ganja (approximately – 10 ml worth Rs 10,000), two weed crusher machines, OCB rolling strips, pipes and other material used for the consumption of ganja. “The accused came in contact with each other through their common friends of Warangal and Hyderabad,” Joshi said.

Rohan many times had been to Goa to purchase drugs, during which he came in contact with two Nigerians namely Jack and Calzofr who used to sell him drugs.
