Among the arrests was an alleged drug supplier, Shehzad Chowdhury, whose wedding was scheduled for just four days later. He and Mohammad Saddam were apprehended near Niranjanpur Vegetable Market, along with 55.68 grams of MD worth Rs 3 lakh and an undisclosed motorcycle. The duo claimed they had procured the drugs from Sheikh Anas of Jhalawar, Rajasthan. Through technical assistance from the Cyber Cell, police tracked Anas to Kota, leading to his arrest on September 23. Anas reportedly stated he had turned to drug smuggling to finance his upcoming wedding in Indore. Additionally, on September 21, a police team investigating a flat booked through Airbnb in Mahalaxmi Nagar discovered Harsh Sharma, Rupali Rawal, and Rani Kaushal inside. They seized 9.17 grams of MD worth Rs 50,000, leading to the filing of charges under Sections 8/22 of the NDPS Act. The police are currently investigating the role of the flat owner, while the three accused remain in custody. Rawal has a history of criminal cases, including an attempt-to-murder case and an NDPS case in Kanadiya. Both Chowdhury and Saddam also have prior criminal records under the NDPS Act.",
