The Narsingi police of Cyberabad will search for the drug peddlers who supplied narcotics to YouTuber and former Bigg Boss-Telugu contestant Shanmukh Jaswanth. Officials have already issued a summon notice to Mr. Shanmukh.
Speaking to The Hindu, the police said Mr. Shanmukh was regularised under Section 27 of the NDPS Act as the contraband seized from him was only 16 grams. “However, we will question him about the supplier and other possible customers of the peddlers,” said the officials.
DCP-Rajendranagar Ch. Srinivas said they were awaiting the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) report to file a charge sheet in the case. “All his medical tests and formalities were completed, and, as per the law, a 41 CrPC notice [a summon notice] was also issued. Post the FSL report, a charge sheet will be filed, and we will be proceeding further with the probe,” he said.
