HYDERABAD: Railway police in Secunderabad seized 52 kilograms of dry ganja valued at ₹26 lakh from Platform No. 7 of the Secunderabad railway station on 9 April. The discovery was made during a joint inspection conducted by the Railway Protection Force (RPF) and the Government Railway Police (GRP).
Speaking at the Secunderabad Railway Police Station, Railway DSP S.N. Javed and in-charge Inspector R. Ellappa informed the media that four large, unclaimed bags were found during routine checks. Upon opening the bags, officials found them filled with ganja.
