Tollywood drugs case: Bizman, pub owner, other surrender

Hyderabad: Businessman Kalahar Reddy along with Surya, owner of Snort pub and another person, whose names cropped up in the recent Tollywood drugs case surrendered before the TS Narcotics Bureau, which is investigating the case. When the issue came to light on September 15, police said these persons were consumers and that they were on the run.

Even as police were searching for them, they moved the High Court for an anticipatory bail. The court, while granting them relief, directed them to surrender before the police. Following the court directions, they surrendered on Tuesday.

Police recorded their surrender and let them off. They will be called again for further questioning, the police said.

It was learnt that police during their brief questioning, asked the trio about their association with the arrested drug peddlers and if they had met them in person. They were also asked if they had consumed drugs.

Police also confronted them with social media chats and call records, however, they denied having consumed drugs, though they knew each other for quite a long time. Actor Navdeep was also questioned by the police last Saturday in the drugs case.
