Four members of an interstate gang were arrested, and 20 kg of hash oil worth Rs 2.5 crore was seized from them in Warangal on Tuesday, police said.
Acting on specific information, police teams apprehended the gang members-who hail from Odisha and Andhra Pradesh-near the railway goods shed area close to the Warangal bus stand, where they were found moving suspiciously while allegedly preparing to leave for Mumbai with the contraband.
During the
investigation, police seized 20 kg of hash oil from the four accused, which they intended to sell in Mumbai, Warangal Police Commissioner Sunpreet Singh said.
The prime accused, who allegedly cultivated ganja in his native place, used to sell the drug along with other gang members, police added.
Recently, the accused produced 40 kg of hash oil from ganja, a police release said, adding that another absconding accused had taken away 20 kg of the contraband.
