In yet another major ganja bust, the city shadow police on Wednesday arrested four men from Tamil Nadu for alleged possession of eight kg of ganja. The accused have been identified as P. Pandi (36) from Thirunelveli, Muthupandi (41) and Manimandiram (29) from Thoothukudi and Muthu (38) from Balaramapuram.
The District Police Chief (Thiruvananthapuram) Sanjaykumar Gurudin had appointed a special shadow team in light of increasing incidences of drug-fuelled violence in the city in recent months. The four were nabbed using information gathered from local ganja sellers, who were earlier picked up by the police.
