Aman Preet Singh, the brother of actor Rakul Preet Singh, has been arrested along with four others for allegedly consuming cocaine in Hyderabad. According to Telangana police, the raid on a flat in Hydershakotla, Narsingi, resulted in the seizure of 199 grams of cocaine worth ₹ 35 lakh, two passports, two bikes, 10 cell phones, and other incriminating materials.
The operation was conducted by the Telangana Anti Narcotics Bureau, the Special Operations Team (SOT) of the Cyberabad police, and the Rajendranagar police. They arrested five individuals involved in selling cocaine to high-profile customers in the city, including two Nigerian nationals.
Cyberabad Commissioner of Police Avinash Mohanty confirmed that Aman Preet Singh was among the customers. Out of 13 consumers, five were arrested, and all tested positive for cocaine in their urine samples. The arrested individuals are Aniketh, Prasad, Aman, Madhu, and Nikhil.
The Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau issued a statement urging youth and students not to fall prey to drugs and advising parents to monitor their children’s activities and feel free to approach the police for help.
