The Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement (EAGLE) on Monday busted an interstate drug racket inside Mahindra University, Bahadurpally, seizing 1.15 kg ganja and 47 grams of OG weed. Four peddlers were arrested — college students Mohd Ashar Javed Khan from New Delhi and Nevelle Tongbram from Manipur, along with city-based merchants Ambati Ganesh and Boosa Shiva Kumar.

The case surfaced during the probe into the Malnadu case, where police found that drugs were being supplied to students on the campus. Investigators discovered that two parcels, originating from a Nigerian national in Delhi, had been delivered to a student, Dinesh, on two occasions inside the campus.
