Thamarassery police have arrested three individuals, including a couple from Karanthur, who were allegedly attempting to sell smuggled MDMA along the Thamarassery bypass road. The arrested suspects have been identified as K.P. Athul (30), P.P. Anas (30), and his wife Naseela (32).
Athul, the primary suspect, has been arrested twice previously in connection with drug trafficking cases. Police sources revealed that Athul had developed a habit of using women as carriers to evade police checks and to discreetly deliver illicit drugs.
The trio was apprehended after a surveillance operation, and further investigations are underway to uncover the extent of their smuggling activities.
