Acting on a tip-off on the movement of narcotic substances in JJ Nagar police limits, a police team coordinating with the anti-narcotics intelligence unit (ANIU) apprehended Anish (27) and Rishikesh (26) at Nakkeeran Road, Mogappair (East) and seized 25 grams of OG ganja from them.
In another case, Saravanaraj (55) of Bengaluru was arrested by the Anna Salai police for smuggling and supplying methamphetamine to drug dealers in Chennai.
