PANAJI: Speaking to media persons, Parrikar said, "Complexity of drugs has also increased. Many cannot be identified easily, which is one of the challenges. At the same time, information based action should be taken. If there are late night parties, police should know that there would be utilisation of drugs somewhere if not at the venue. They have to be more alert to prevent this." "Late night rave parties are illegal and this is where drug use is abundant. However inside restaurants they are not banned. So what I have told them (Police) is rave parties which happen on beaches or remote areas should be totally stopped," informed Parrikar.
The Anti Narcotics Cell, has arrested two persons, Yogita Naik and Chaitali Naik believed to be sisters for being in possession of 14 kgs of suspected ganja after a raid at their residence in Khorlim-Mapusa.
