Cocaine Sale in Secunderabad… Nigerian Woman Arrested

Drug-related activities in Hyderabad are reportedly increasing to alarming levels, with incidents of drug parties being organized at farmhouses and pubs coming to light frequently. In a recent development, within hours of a midnight drug racket being busted in Kondapur, another case surfaced. Police arrested a Nigerian woman near Paradise in Secunderabad, close to Sunshine Hospital, for selling drugs. Approximately 7.5 grams of cocaine were seized from her possession. Investigations revealed that she purchased the substance in Mumbai at ₹15,000 per gram and sold it in Hyderabad for ₹30,000 per gram. The accused was apprehended by the Secunderabad Task Force while attempting to supply the drugs after arriving in an auto. Police found the cocaine concealed in five packets and later handed her over to the excise authorities.

Meanwhile, a drug party held at a pub in Kondapur was busted by the Eagle team. A special event titled “Black Coffee,” featuring a Nigerian DJ, was being conducted at Quake Arena pub when officials carried out a late-night raid based on credible information. Drug tests were conducted on 64 individuals, of whom initially eight tested positive. However, the number was later revised to seven. One individual, identified as Ritwik, tested positive in a urine test, but subsequent blood tests conducted by doctors in Erragadda returned negative results. Police stated that the initial positive result could have been due to the consumption of sleeping pills, as indicated by medical experts.

Authorities also clarified that none of the seven individuals who tested positive had any prior history of drug use. Actress Hema, who attended the party, released a video stating that her drug test result was negative. Officials noted that since the Eagle team intensified its operations, the number of drug-related cases being detected has increased. Telangana police are taking stringent action against drug networks and more such cases are likely to surface in the coming days.
