Max Sniffs Out Ganja, Helps Arrest Woman Peddler Nagpur: Max, a specially trained narcotic detection dog under the National Drug Policy (NDPS) program, played a pivotal role in the successful arrest of a woman suspected of peddling ganja. The operation took place in a slum area near Meetha Neem Dargah in Civil Lines, where police, working under the codename “Operation Thunder,” conducted a joint raid with the Bharosa Cell, the all-woman Damini Squad, and Sitabuldi police. The coordinated effort targeted drug trafficking networks, with a focus on identifying and apprehending individuals involved in the illicit trade. The raid began with initial checks on suspected individuals, both men and women, but no contraband was found during the initial frisking. However, when Max was deployed to conduct a detailed search of the residence of Naziya Khan, the dog immediately alerted the team. Following Max’s precise indication, police discovered three packets of ganja hidden within the premises. The detection dog’s ability to identify even small quantities of narcotics proved critical in the intelligence-driven operation. The operation highlighted the effectiveness of combining canine units with specialized anti-narcotics squads. Max’s alert allowed the police to secure the evidence without escalating tensions with the local community. The seized ganja is now under investigation to determine its quantity, quality, and origin. Authorities are also working to trace any wider network associated with Khan’s activities. A case has been registered against Khan and two of her accomplices, with further legal proceedings expected to follow.#max #national_drug_policy_ndps #naziya_khan #damini_squad #bharosa_cell
