Hyderabad: The Hyderabad police busted a drug racket with the arrest of two peddlers and a consumer. Six grams of cocaine, 15 grams of MDMA, two blots of LSD, a drug consuming kit and three mobile phones, all worth over Rs.3.35 lakh were seized from the possession of the arrested persons. The arrested have been identified as Solomon Susai Raj alias Suleiman Susairaj, 33, and Shaik Ghouse, 34, both residents of Amberpet. Raj and Ghouse were drug peddlers while K. Mahesh, 25, of Tarnaka was a consumer, said Ande Srinivasa Rao, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, Task Force. Rao said Raj got addicted to weed, MDMA, cocaine, and other narcotic substances. He used to purchase ganja and other drugs from local sources for consumption. In 2021, he along with his friend Abdu alias Rabu hatched a plan to do drug business. They traveled to Bangalore, Goa and purchased ecstasy pills, MDMA, and Charas, and intended to sell them to customers in Hyderabad. However, they were arrested by Ameerpet excise police. In 2023, Raj was arrested by the LB Nagar police in Rachakonda under the NDPS Act and was sent to Cherlapally jail where he met Shaik Ghouse, who was also lodged in jail for a ganja case. After his release from jail, Raj did not change his ways. He continued to purchase narcotic drugs, selling some to customers and using the rest with Ghouse. Last month he purchased cocaine, MDMA, and LSD blots from one known person in Bangalore. On December 21, 2024, he along with Ghouse was in the limits of Amberpet trying to sell the drug to Mahesh. Acting on credible information, the Task Force South West Zone and Amberpet police team apprehended the accused persons along with cocaine, MDMA and LSD blots.
