According to additional DCP (crime) Shailendra Singh Chauhan, a case has been registered against the accused under the NDPS Act, and further interrogation is underway. Police said efforts were on to trace another youth who was accompanying the accused and managed to escape. Separate teams have been formed to locate him.
OG cannabis
OG cannabis, also known as Original Grade or Organic cannabis is considered purer, more potent and more expensive than regular cannabis. Due to its high THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) content, its effects are stronger and last longer. It is reportedly cultivated using special methods including underwater farming. In the grey market, OG cannabis sells for Rs 8,000 and Rs 15,000 per gram depending on quality and supply.
