According to the police, the rave party was being held at an apartment in the upscale Kondapur locality, which is known for its trendy restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. The party was allegedly organized by two peddlers, who had been selling drugs to the partygoers. The police received a tip-off about the party and launched a raid on the apartment at around 11 pm on Saturday.
During the raid, the police found 20 grams of cocaine, eight ecstasy pills, and three grams of MDMA, a synthetic drug also known as ecstasy or molly. The drugs were seized, and six people were arrested in connection with the rave party.
The arrested individuals include:
- A 36-year-old wine shop businessman from Kushaiguda.

- Two peddlers, aged 25 and 30, who had been selling drugs to the partygoers.
- A 24-year-old engineering student from Banjara Hills.

The police said that the housewife, who was arrested at the scene, was among the partygoers who had consumed the drugs. The software engineer, who was also arrested, was found to be in possession of a small quantity of cocaine.
The police have booked the accused under various sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and are investigating the case further. The arrested individuals are currently being held at the Kondapur police station.
The busting of the rave party has sent shockwaves through the city, with many residents expressing concern over the growing menace of drug abuse in the city. The Hyderabad Police have been cracking down on drug peddlers and partygoers in recent months, but the rave party bust has highlighted the need for more stringent measures to curb the problem.
The Kondapur police have promised to take strict action against all those involved in the rave party, including the organizers, peddlers, and consumers. The police have also appealed to the public to come forward with information about any drug-related activities in their neighborhoods.
In recent years, Hyderabad has seen a surge in drug-related incidents, including rave parties and drug-fueled crimes. The city’s growing nightlife scene and its proximity to international airports have made it a hub for drug trafficking and abuse.
The authorities have been taking steps to curb the problem, including increasing patrolling in areas known for their nightlife, conducting raids on suspected drug dens, and providing counseling and rehabilitation services to drug addicts.
However, despite these efforts, the problem of drug abuse remains a significant challenge for the city. The busting of the rave party in Kondapur is a reminder that drug abuse is a serious issue that requires a concerted effort from the authorities, civil society, and individuals to combat.
As the city continues to grapple with the problem of drug abuse, it is essential that we work together to create a safer and healthier environment for all. The authorities must continue to take tough action against drug peddlers and partygoers, while also providing support and rehabilitation services to those who are struggling with addiction.
