Kalamna Police Seize 1.29 kg Ganja in Chikhali, Arrest Middle aged Man

Nagpur, India: The Kalamna police have arrested a middle aged man, Sheikh Chand, also known as Sheikh Ismail, for his involvement in the illegal drug trade. During a recent operation in the Chikhali slum area, authorities seized 1.29 kilograms of marijuana from his possession. The arrest was made after police received a tip off about a drug dealer allegedly selling ganja in the area.

According to police sources, the Kalamna police were on routine patrol when they acted swiftly on the intelligence they received. The team raided the residence of Sheikh Ismail, a known figure in the Chikhali slum, where they discovered the illegal substances. Ismail, who reportedly has a history of criminal activities, was taken into custody without resistance.

The police have filed a case against him under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, which mandates strict penalties for the possession, trafficking, and sale of controlled substances. The seizure of over a kilogram of marijuana has sparked concerns among local authorities about the growing drug trade in the region.
