Three wanted in Telangana drug cases tracked down in Rajasthan

Three men wanted in separate narcotics cases in Telangana have been tracked down in Rajasthan and brought back to the State in a joint operation by the anti-narcotics forces of the two states.

The EAGLE Force of Telangana, coordinated with the Rajasthan Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF) to apprehend Jaykishan, 28, Suresh, 30, and Dinesh Kumar.

The operation followed intelligence shared under a cooperation mechanism between the two forces. A team of eight personnel drawn from EAGLE Force, Hyderabad City Police and Cyberabad Police subsequently travelled to Rajasthan to take the trio into custody.

The journey itself took around 24 hours, with four drivers deployed for the long-distance operation, said director of EAGLE, Sandeep Shandilya.

“Investigations into drug cases in Telangana had increasingly pointed towards alleged suppliers operating from Rajasthan, particularly in cases involving opium, heroin and MDMA,” said the officer.
