Recent arrests made by the Telangana Police in narcotics cases have revealed that Kasauli, a town in the Himalayas, is emerging as a new hub for drug procurement. Authorities seized LSD blots sourced from Mumbai worth Rs 11,50,000 and apprehended V Lakshmipathi, a tech graduate who fell into the drug trade due to his marijuana addiction. He later started sourcing drugs from Araku and then ventured into the party hubs of Goa and Kasauli, where drug peddlers and consumers congregate. Lakshmipathi used Snapchat to communicate anonymously and exploited courier services for logistic distribution. This revelation underscores the ever-evolving drug trade and the clever methods employed by peddlers to evade law enforcement.

It also highlights the importance of proactive and comprehensive law enforcement in curbing these activities.

The Nigerian citizen arrested for drug smuggling 16 grams of cocaine highlights the diversity of the issue and the need for unified and thoughtful solutions in response to these emerging trafficking hubs.
