Pertinent to mention here that many cases are registered against the said drug peddlers and were involved in promoting drug abuse trade by supplying drugs to local youth in their districts. Despite their involvement in many FIRs, they did not mend their activities and were again involved in promoting drug abuse trade by supplying drugs to local youth.
