So happy to see at least in this business Green and Saffron goons are dealing with peace respect and harmony...ha ha.......
Others need to learn from them......(not to sell ganja) but to unite....

By the way these arrests are just to show that police not with them...

see here all parties are united. BJP, VHP BD will not stage protest or declare them terrorists. wtihin few days they will be out. Without the ingredients how these outfits servive?

In this business there is no cast community religion etc. no ghar wapasi,

Al Hamdulillah....im just imagining if its only Muslims involved then there will be different stories. they might get connections with PFI, SDPI,, Lashkar etc. they survived doing these dirty things along with other religion mate..
Anyway punish all of them like Saudi law especially for drug suppliers hanging in public by that no one else will do the same thing. if they release on bail they will continue the same.

State toppers in Smuggling

Toppers in...????

Mangaluru police issue alert over fake traffic fine payment Apps and links

Mangaluru, Dec 20: City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy has issued a high-alert warning to vehicle owners regarding a surge in cyber fraud targeting those looking to pay traffic violation fines. Fraudsters are reportedly exploiting recent government discount schemes on traffic penalties to deceive citizens.

The Scam: How Fraudsters Strike

Criminals are using SMS, WhatsApp, and social media to circulate suspicious links and APK files (Android application packages). They claim these apps allow users to pay e-challans at a discount.

• Device Hacking: Downloading these unauthorized apps gives hackers full access to the victim's smartphone.

• Financial Theft: Once the phone is compromised, fraudsters intercept OTPs and personal data to drain bank accounts.

• Phishing Sites: Fake websites mimicking official portals are also being used to harvest banking credentials.

Already, two residents within Mangaluru city limits have reported significant financial losses after falling victim to these fraudulent apps.
