On one hand, the September 14 arrests made in the ‘Madhapur Drugs Case’ have created ripples in Tollywood once again as actor Navdeep’s curious case of obtaining bail, and then getting questioned by the Telangana State Narcotics Bureau after giving the actor notices under Sc 41A has turned all the heads. Before that case took any major turn, the old 2017 sensational drugs case was back in the limelight.
The other day, the Enforcement Directorate called Navdeep to their office in Basheerbagh to question him in connection with the 2017 drugs case as well as the present case. It’s coming out that ED is suspicious that money laundering is happening in the drugs case where cashless transactions have become pivotal for the operations. ED is said to have grilled Navdeep for six hours regarding his connections with three Nigerians and the smuggling of drugs into Hyderabad.
Back in 2017, this case created ripples with the arrest of Nigerian Drug Peddler Calvin Maschernas, the likes of Rana Daggubati, Rakul Preet Singh, Raviteja, Puri Jagan, Charmme, Nandu, Tarun, Tanish and other actors were called for questioning by Anti-Drugs Bureau in Hyderabad. And ED has summoned Rakul, especially in 2021 for a round of questioning regarding money laundering in the Tollywood drugs racket. Well, it looks like the Drugs case is not yet over.
