CCB raided 5 pubs in Bengaluru to check drug menace

The CCB police raided five pubs in Bengaluru city as part of its crackdown against the drug menace. The searches were carried out on Saturday night. “In the drug case investigation, we found that generic drugs are taken in some pubs. So, search warrants were taken and five pubs searched yesterday night,” Bengaluru Joint Commissioner of Police Sandeep Patil said in a brief statement. Police have not shared any information on the outcome of the raids.

The police have started a drive against the drug abuse in the city and have arrested a few Kannada film actresses, drug peddlers, rave party organizers among others as part of the investigations. The crackdown came in the backdrop of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) busting a drug racket here. Two police officials have been suspended recently on charges of leaking information related to the CCB probe to the rave party organizers and others.
