Special Operations Team and Pocharam police arrested Mohammed Amer and Mohd Imran Uddin for transporting 60 kg of marijuana from Odisha to Mumbai. Officers intercepted their Maruti Suzuki SX4 near Annojiguda village, seizing contraband valued at approximately ₹30 lakh hidden behind the vehicle's rear seat.

Investigators revealed the suspects procured the consignment for ₹7,000 per kg to sell for ₹15,000 per kg in Dharavi. Both men have extensive criminal histories involving NDPS cases, and authorities are currently searching for the Odisha-based supplier and the intended Mumbai receiver. The operation remains ongoing to dismantle the inter-State trafficking network.
