According to sources, the police received a tip-off about the party being held at a flat in Kondapur’s Prestige Highrise apartment complex. A team of police officers from the Cyberabad Police Commissionerate was dispatched to the location, where they found the party in full swing.

The three consumers arrested are 25-year-old Rohan, 22-year-old Priyanka, and 21-year-old Aryan.
During the raid, the police seized 20 grams of cocaine, eight ecstasy pills, and three grams of MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine), a psychoactive drug commonly known as ecstasy. The police also recovered other drug-related paraphernalia, including drug-laced chocolates, cigarettes, and other contraband items.
The police said that the party was being held to promote illegal drugs, and that the accused were trying to peddle the drugs to the partygoers.
