Mulavukad police detained Sharath, aged 28 and described as a native of Fort Vypin Panikkarupadi, at the Panikkarupadi bus stop in Vypin.[1] Officers had seen Sharath in suspicious circumstances at the Panikkarupadi bus stop on the previous day before detaining him and conducting a body search.[1] The body search led officers to find ganja in the possession of the detained youth.[1]
The quantity found in his possession during that search was two grams of ganja.[1] Following the seizure, police registered a case against the youth in connection with the possession of the two grams.[1] After registering the case, police released the youth on bail.[1]
Ganja is the local term for cannabis seized from the youth at the bus stand.[1] The enforcement action thus combined detention at a public bus stop, a body search, a two-gram seizure, registration of a case and release on bail.[1] Panikkarupadi is in the Vypin area where Mulavukad police carried out the detention and search.[1]
