Authorities in Hyderabad have dismantled a significant drug network with the arrest of Dr. John Paul, a local doctor implicated in the possession and distribution of narcotics valued at ₹3 lakh. The raid, conducted by the Telangana Excise Department’s Special Task Force, recovered a variety of banned substances from Paul’s rented accommodation. Evidence points to a wider syndicate involving associates who sourced drugs from Delhi and Bengaluru, highlighting the pervasive nature of illegal drug trade across state borders.
