Earlier, the police had arrested Pradeep, a resident of Mahendragarh district and Izhar Alam, a resident of Bihar who is presently residing in Jakhoda village in Jhajjar district in the same case.

The police spokesperson said the investigation into the matter began on October 22, when the Special Staff team, led by sub-inspector Dilbag Singh, received a tip-off about narcotics being hidden in a room of a farm at Nimli village in Charkhi Dadri district. On raiding the site, the police seized 3.370 kg of opium and 5.670 kg of charas. The room belonged to Pradeep, who fled the scene at the time of the raid.
