Tiruppur city’s prohibition enforcement wing arrested Ganesh Nayak, 23, after
officers found 10 kg of cannabis on him during a check near Kuthiraikkarar
Thottam on Saturday, 31 October 2026.[1] The officers were carrying out checks
in the area when they noticed Nayak moving about suspiciously and stopped him to
question him.[1] The cannabis was found on him during that questioning, and
the officers arrested him.[1]
Dinamalar, in its own report on the arrest, said the cannabis was packed in a
sack and that Nayak was from the area.[2] Police seized the sack and
registered a case against him, that report said.[2] Both reports give the
quantity as 10 kg and name the prohibition enforcement wing as the unit that
made the arrest.[1]
