    Dear Readers these are nothing but eye wash and how many ganja addicts have died as far as I know ganja hardly kills any more than tobacco does it is when mixed with other drugs and alcohol it becomes dangerous, all the persons who used to smoke ganja during my time in fact are at present doing extremely well for themselves.
    Many have fallen victims to other psychotropic prescription drugs available in pharmacies which are the main culprits behind these deaths there have been so many deaths but since these students are basically from north India no publicity has been given.
    we should applaud these parents who have come forward to say "yes our daughter was an addict and this is how she met her end so please take care of your children" most of the Parents are either unaware or in denial of the double life led by their children and usually they think their children are the best and they are not involved in any unwanted activities until they are exposed by some outfits or media as was the case with MMS " Captured Sex" incidents.
    Parents keep close watch on your children and their friends always try and extract all the information about their whereabouts and their activities give them space but watch them like a eagle , If not you shall be a sufferer one day!!

    With a lot of confidence I can tell that this is just a tip of the iceberg. This business thrives mainly because of the floating population (read: wealthy students studying in colleges around Mangalore) and some wealthy Mangaloreans. Lets face it business is kept alive by its customers and in this case its dependents. And my gut feeling is for the business to thrive to this proportions, some from the establishment are also hand in glove in this business. Hope the law enforcement agencies have the appetite to uphold the law of the land and protect our future generations from succumbing to this menace.

    Yes Nagraj Shetty, Udupi you are right, he doesn't looks like a drug peddler from any angle it is just a eye wash. Drug peddlers are real smart this guy he looks so dumb, he would have disappeared easily while they were taking a group picture, does any of you person thinks he was fully secured in this picture?

    An incident has to happen to get the police into action. This person who is caught was well within the eyes of the police and he is arrested within a few days after the death of a student. Because of the Law & order police failure we have now moral police doing their job. I will not congratulate the police as they have acted under public pressure and once the memory of the public is dies down mark my words these drug peddlers will be back to their old activities and the knowing the drug peddlers whereabouts will turn their face. Time will speak.

    Well done Kundapur Police, you are catching the dangerous drugs & their peddlers. Mangalore police are busy confiscating kids stuff like beedi’s [our good old Khaki Cigarette’s] and Gutka.

    It is a well known fact that Ganja is grown in the high dense Kundapur forest hills.The Kerala migrant people are growing this plant.This was published several years ago in an English daily. The Central Excise team had visited this ganja farm after climbing for 2 days with the help of the local police. Although they had destroyed it, that was the last raid.The news item also mentioned that these people were regularly buying bone mixture, a fertilizer used for ganja cultivation. This story must be 15 years old.

    He is peddler and who is main kingpin?Unless police will catch the original kingpin,the drugs will be made available from other peddler.Therefore,Police need to keep eye on drug mafia with determination and with added intelligence cover up.And also there is a need to review punishment on drug handlers as Govt of India did in rape case.Drug kills gradually and determent punishment like one in gulf countries.
