The Telangana State Anti-Narcotics Bureau has successfully dismantled a rave gathering in the Madhapur area of Hyderabad. Prompted by a tip-off, officers from the Anti-Narcotics Bureau conducted a raid on an apartment located in Vithal Rao Nagar. During the operation, a significant quantity of banned substances, including Cocaine and LSD, were confiscated.
The operation resulted in the detention of several individuals, among them a Telugu film producer, along with two young women and three men. The two women are also associated with the film industry. Following the raid, the apprehended individuals were handed over to the Madhapur police by a team from the Narcotics Control Bureau. A comprehensive investigation is presently underway.
The Narcotics Bureau is actively investigating the origins of these illicit drugs, seeking to ascertain their source and distribution network. Given the ongoing nature of the investigation, both the Anti-Narcotics Bureau officials and the police are refraining from divulging further details. For the time being, the identities of the individuals who have been apprehended are being kept confidential.
This occurrence is not the first instance of a connection between the Tollywood film industry and narcotics. In a recent incident in June 2023, KP Choudhary, a producer associated with Tollywood, was apprehended while in possession of cocaine. This particular incident created a considerable stir, as Choudhary was closely affiliated with numerous actors and actresses within the industry. Known for hosting gatherings attended by celebrities, Choudhary’s arrest brought to light the concerning issue of drug involvement within the Tollywood film scene.
