In a crackdown on drug trafficking, Udupi police apprehended a 19-year-old suspect on Wednesday after receiving a tip about MDMA distribution. Authorities seized a package of the synthetic drug at the suspect’s residence.
The case follows a series of drug-related arrests across the district. MDMA, commonly known as ecstasy, is illegal under Indian law and can result in severe penalties. The suspect is believed to have been involved in sourcing and distributing the substance to local parties.
The arrest is a sign of the district’s efforts to curb drug abuse, particularly among youth. The police say the investigation will continue to uncover any wider network. Source: Google News – Udupi.
