Addressing a press meet here, the police commissioner informed that along with Kulai resident Kishore Aman Shetty (30), a person identified as Aqeel Nausheel (28), a resident of Suratkal, had also been arrested for possessing MDMA (methylene droxy methamphetamine), which is banned as it is harmful for the health.

He also bagged prize in a dance copettion in Suvarna Kannada channel.

"Along with Aqeel, Kishore also was involved in selling MDMA for quick money. Both have been arrested for drug peddling and consumption," the commissioner said.

"We will investigate the drugs connection to Mumbai and track the complete link, and will take action against whoever is involved in it.

"We also have information of the involvement of the arrangement of parties and we will further look into it," he added.

He further said that the police will seek custody of the accused and trace all possible drug networks connected to the case.

"The case has been registered under NDPS Act, and all aspects will be investigated. We have already received a few clues," the police commissioner said.

The operation was conducted under the guidance of police commissoner Vikash Kumar, by CCB inspector Shivaprakash, R Naik, economic narcotics inspector Ramakrishna, CCB PSI Kabbalraj and others.

    I still don't why people are surprised. Like, you go to ANY College campus and test the students there and you'll find atleast 3 out 10 being drug addicts! These Bollywood/sandalwood drug scandal is a gimmick and irrelevant( they're not that important in society) Talk about drugs in student life because it's more relevant!

    After reading the news article in detail, I feel that the 'sahavasa dosha' factor played a major role. look at Kishor's face, he seems to be too innocent to be involved in all these drug issues!!!!
