The accused include Morupoju Ravi Varma, 27, Jarpula Lokesh, 26, and Syed Sohail Hussain, 27. The trio was apprehended near Navaru Balreddy Function Hall on Srisailam Highway while traveling towards Hyderabad from Lambasingi. Police intercepted a Maruti Swift car carrying the three suspects. During the search, 11 transparent packets containing a black substance suspected to be hashish oil were discovered. The seized items also included two mobile phones and the car with registration number TS 07 HT 6393. According to police, Ravi Varma, previously involved in an NDPS case, met a supplier named \"Bunny\" from Lambasingi. Along with Lokesh and Sohail Hussain, they allegedly traveled to Lambasingi, procured the hashish oil for ₹9.5 lakh, and brought the contraband to Hyderabad for sale at Secunderabad railway station. Police noted that the trio circumvented major routes to avoid detection. A case has been registered at the Kandukur police station under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.",
