A man was arrested in the Vijay Nagar area while attempting to flee with MD drugs worth Rs 2 lakh in the international market. Rajaram Lodhi, a resident of Gauri Nagar, was apprehended by a police team under Operation Prahar, an initiative targeting drug peddlers. The team had received a tip-off and stationed themselves behind Hotel Sayaji, where they spotted Lodhi on a scooter. When he attempted to flee, police quickly caught up with him and seized over 17 grams of MD drugs.
Lodhi was booked under Section 8/22 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, and the investigation is ongoing to determine the source and network involved in the drug trade.
