An interesting but thought-provoking incident has been reported from Adimali, Idukki district. Some adolescent school boys stepped into a State Excise office in Adimali; they were looking for matches to light cannabis beedi.
The young team had been to Munnar from Thrissur; it was a picnic. They went to the Excise office, without knowing where they were, to ask for matches to light the cannabis beedi they had stocked with them. When they saw men in uniform inside the offices, the frightened boys tried to run away from the scene. But the officers stopped them from running away. The officers were led by the Circle Inspector. They examined them thoroughly and seized 5 grams cannabis from a boy and one gram hash oil from another one. The boys reportedly told the officers that they had mistaken the Excise office as a workshop, because, several vehicles were seen parked in the backyard. They were seized vehicles caught in connection with drug or liquor trafficking. Since they entered the office through the backdoor, they did not see the board of the Excise department.
Then the officers called the teachers. The teachers provided counselling for the students. Then they called their parents. They reached the place and took the boys with them. But, a case was registered against the boys who carried the cannabis with them.
The incident has sent shock waves throughout the state. Parents are scared. Teachers are worried. Even otherwise, drug consumption has been spreading in Kerala like cancer. Since Modi Government has taken strong steps to stop the money laundering and hawala operations, the anti-national and Jihadi forces resort to drug trafficking for funding the anti-national activities. Recently, several large-scale drug hauling have been reported from Kerala. Most important of them was from Kochi. During the month of May, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the Indian Navy, in a joint operation, seized the largest-ever drug consignment in the Indian waters in the Indian Ocean. It was worth Rs 12,000 crore and weighed 2,500 kgs. The consignment was reported to be methamphetamine. It was seized from a vessel off the Kerala coast. A Pak national was detained in connection with this.
