30 kgs of Ganja seized at Siolim, 2 Russians held

21 Jul 2018 08:40 PM

30 kilos of marijuana were seized from two Russians in Siolim, the constituency of Fisheries Minister Vinod Palyekar.



The seizure was worth Rs 10 lakhs. The drugs were grown in rented premises. The duo is booked under the Narco act. 

This drug bust comes on the heels of the huge Ketamine bust from a factory owned by a senior BJP office bearer.

The drug mafia first hit the news following British teen Scarlett's death on Anjuna beach.

Goa has become a transit point for drugs in India. Earlier too there were reports that suggested that the mafia in Goa is actively involved in sending out drugs to various parts of the country and the world, something that can be possibly collaborated by these recent seizures.
