Kollur police arrested two young men accused of buying ganja in Bihar, bringing it to Hyderabad by train and trying to sell it to workers at labour camps.[1] Officers seized 1.904 kg of ganja and two mobile phones from them.[1]

Acting on a tip-off that ganja was being moved through the J.P. Colony area of Tellapur, police set up checks there on 6 November.[1] During the checks they detained Irfan Alam, 22, and Azharuddin Ansari, 22.[1] A search of the black bag they carried found 1.904 kg of ganja in two packets.[1]

Questioning showed the two bought about 2 kg of ganja around 2 November from an unidentified man in a Bihar border area.[1] They told police they took it by train to Hyderabad and kept it at their home in Tellapur.[1] Police said the pair were carrying it out to sell to labourers at labour camps for profit when they were caught.[1]
