Coimbatore: Six youths who began their higher schooling as meritorious school students in a leading schooling institution in the town have ended up in the back of the bars after changing into ganja peddlers.
The town police arrested the six students for ownership of 2kg of ganja for gross sales at Codissia Road near Peelamedu on Friday. Police said the students have been staying in a condominium room at Bharathi Colony in Peelamedu and acquired ganja from Bengaluru in Karnataka. The six have been selling ganja to a number of different school students in and round Peelamedu. The arrested six have been lodged at the Coimbatore central prison on overdue Friday night time. The arrested students have been identified as V Manikandan, 21, of Hosur in Krishnagiri, M Akshay, 20, of Kunnathur in Tirupur, S Gopalakrishnan, 21, of Boyampalayam in Tirupur, S Vignesh, 21, of Kangeyam Road in Tirupur, R Sriram, 21, of Puliyampatti in Erode district, and R Arjun, 21, of Gandhipuram in Mettupalayam.
Manikandan, Vignesh and Arjun have been learning BE (robotics). Sriram and Gopalakrishnan have been learning final 12 months BBA (data systems) and Akshay used to be learning final 12 months BSc (electronics).
The Peelamedu police were given a tip-off that a couple of early life have been selling ganja steadily on Codissia Road. They nabbed the youths along side the contraband. Preliminary investigations printed that one of the most arrested students have been the usage of ganja for the ultimate twelve months.
A couple of months in the past, the students visited Bengaluru where they met a ganja provider and acquired 1kg of ganja for Rs 10,000 from him. Later, they bought it to many students who have been staying in school hostels and condominium rooms and earned profit of more than Rs 10,000 in line with kg. They used to divide the profit. Subsequently, they began buying ganja from Bengaluru and bought it in Coimbatore.
Of overdue, the Bengaluru provider himself visited Coimbatore to supply ganja to the six students for gross sales. “We have amassed the main points of the Bengaluru-based ganja dealer and shaped a different staff to nab him,” said a police officer. The Peelamedu police registered a case towards the six students under Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act and remanded them in judicial custody. The students have been lodged at the Coimbatore central prison.
