HYDERABAD: A police team that went to a flat in Puppalguda in Narsingi on Thursday to nab an accused in a sexual exploitation case, stumbled upon a surprise ganja haul. After finding the contraband, Narsingi police began investigation against the accused’s brother, a YouTuber, and a former participant of Big Boss-Telugu, on suspicion of being in possession of ganja for consumption.
The police said they seized 18gm ganja. A woman had approached Narsingi police claiming that one Sampath Vinay befriended her, and they were in a relationship for some time.
She claimed the accused sexually exploited her over the past few years, promising to marry her. They even got engaged.
However, she recently came to know that Sampath had married another woman. On knowing that she was cheated, the woman approached the police, who registered a case under Section 420 (cheating) and 376 (rape) of IPC, against Sampath. As part of the investigation, the police went to Sampath’s residence to take him into custody.
They initially could not find Sampath at home. So, they went from room to room, when they discovered the contraband. Sampath is the brother of YouTuber Shanmukh, who was taken into custody from the house on suspicion of ganja consumption. “We are still questioning him to know who used to consume the drug, and from where they used to get it. Sampath has been arrested and remanded in judicial custody, while Shanmukh has been taken into custody,” police said. A new case was registered for violation of NDPS Act.
Police said they were yet to verify the woman’s allegation that she had a abortion in the past on Sampath’s instructions.
