The Bellandur police, on Monday, arrested a 20-year-old woman for selling marijuana, on Outer Ring Road. They recovered 500 grams of marijuana worth ₹15,000 from her.
According to the police, the accused, Ramya Krishna, lives in Banashankari. She would use her one-and-a-half year-old daughter as a cover for her illegal activities. Acting on a tip-off, Constable Kanthamma M. pretended to be a client and arrested Ramya. “She has been selling marijuana for the past two-and-a-half years,” said the police, adding that she sourced it from Tamil Nadu.
"This is the first time we have caught a woman peddling marijuana,” said Inspector Victor Simon. She has been booked under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act and remanded in judicial custody.
