Recreational drugs users turned peddlers were nabbed by the Hyderabad police on Thursday. Among them is an NIT, Warangal alumni who not only bought LSD and cocaine but also resorted to selling them.

Saket Jaiswal of Nepal, who completed his civil engineering from NIT, Warangal, got addicted to the chemical drugs after coming in contact with Sanjay Kumar Das Sud alias Slash in Goa.

As Slash used to supply drugs to Saket, he frequently visited Goa to consume them. Through one of his classmates, Saket came in contact with N. Aakash Singh, a cricket coach and B. Tarun Das, a private employee.

He introduced the banned substances to them in Hyderabad. The three friends started even selling the LSD stamps and cocaine procured from Slash at a higher rate in Hyderabad to youngsters and party-goers.

The police apprehended all the four accused and seized 3 grams of cocaine and 22 stamps of LSD, 20 grams of charas and 10 sugar cubes containing LSD from their possession.
