In a shocking revelation, Hyderabad's tranquil outskirts became the scene of a drug-related arrest, with six IT professionals detained for their involvement in illegal substance abuse. The incident, which took place at a secluded farmhouse in Medipally village, has raised concerns about drug use among young professionals.
On Saturday night, the prohibition and excise authorities received a tip-off about a potential drug gathering at the farmhouse. Acting swiftly, they raided the premises in the early hours of Sunday, uncovering a birthday celebration turned drug-fueled party. Among the revelers were Abhijith Banerjee, Simpson, Parthu, Goyal, Yashwanth Reddy, and Sevio Dennis, all in their 30s and employed by a prominent multinational company in the city.
The raid yielded a significant haul, including 0.05 grams of LSD blots, hashish oil, and a scotch bottle. The luxury vehicles parked outsidea BMW, a Jeep, and a Datsun Gohinted at the affluent backgrounds of the attendees. The accused were promptly tested, and five out of six tested positive for drug use.
Investigators revealed that Abhijith Banerjee had procured the drugs from Himachal Pradesh and had a history of supplying hashish oil to his peers. The recent promotions of two partygoers and Abhijith's birthday seemed to have triggered this clandestine celebration. With the seized drug quantity exceeding the legal limit, the accused now face serious charges under the Narcotics Drugs & Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential pitfalls of substance abuse within the professional community. As the investigation unfolds, it will be crucial to determine the source of the drugs and whether this is an isolated incident or part of a larger network of drug abuse within the city's IT sector.
