Two individuals, including a woman from Assam, were arrested by Egmore Police on charges of drug peddling after 700 grams of methamphetamine and 6.5 kilograms of ganja were seized from their car.
The arrest followed a vehicle check on Gandhi-Irwin Road, where the suspects, M. Balasubramanian and Fathima Begum, gave suspicious responses. Police found the drugs concealed inside the vehicle during a search. Balasubramanian, a repeat offender in drug-related crimes, is currently under further interrogation.
