Trombay police have apprehended two individuals from Uran for allegedly selling charas that had washed ashore a month ago. A 26-year-old fisherman discovered the narcotic substance on the Uran shore and shared it with a friend, who confirmed its authenticity after tasting it. Both decided to sell it in the market and travelled to Mankhurd. However, when the police apprehended them with 1.5 kg of charas, they questioned the origin of the substance and subsequently recovered 6.4 kg of charas valued at Rs 30.22 lakhs from their hometown.
"We have arrested two individuals and seized 6.44 kg of charas valued at Rs 30.22 Lakhs from them. The accused informed us that they discovered these packets on the Raigad shoreline," stated Ravindra Ranshevare, Senior Inspector of the Trombay police station.
