The Special Enforcement Bureau (SEB) officials, on Saturday, made multiple arrests and seized large amounts of ganja from various rural locations near Vizag.
In one of these ganja smuggling cases, an auto was coming from Chintapalli Road when SEB personnel were inspecting vehicles at Gabbada near Narsipatnam.

When the teams searched the auto, they found 130 kilograms of ganja.
At another checkpoint, SEB officials seized 70 kg ganja in a car near Gabbada Bridge in Narsipatnam near Vizag. A further 36 kg was seized from a scooter near Rolugunta mandal in Peddapeta, while the accused had escaped. The SEB officials also seized the scooter as evidence. He was later identified on the basis of the Aadhaar card found in the scooter and arrested.
