The Navghar police on Wednesday afternoon apprehended a 27-year-old man in possession of mephedrone worth Rs 2.07 lakh. The matter came to light when a team patrolling the streets ahead of Independence Day came across a blue Maruti Suzuki Baleno which had three occupants.
A police officer said, after the police stopped the vehicle, 2.29 kg of mephedrone was found inside it. “We found the car near Airoli bridge and the trio was travelling from Kalyan to Navi Mumbai,” he said. “The accused confessed that they had planned to sell the drugs across the city,” said the officer.
