According to Bangalore Mirror, those three people have been identified by the detectives as Anikha D, a resident of Doddagubbi in Bengaluru, M Anoop, a resident of Royal Suites Hotel Apartment in Kalyan Nagar and R Ravindran, a resident of Nikoo homes in Bengaluru.
The tabloid also states that the drugs were sourced from Western Europe. KPS Malhotra, the Deputy Director (operations) of Narcotics Control Bureau issued a statement to PTI which reads, "In follow up action, the team seized 96 pills of MDMA and 18 LSD blots at Nikoo homes in Bengaluru. Later, a lady drug supplier who had been the main kingpin of the case was intercepted and 270 pills of MDMA were recovered from her house at Dodagubbi Bengaluru."
Malhotra further stated that the accused has supplied drugs to Sandalwood stars and they are now keeping the prominent actors and musicians in the radar.
