The Central Crime Branch police of Bengaluru has arrested Darshan Lamani, the son of senior Congress leader and former minister of textiles and Muzrai department, Rudrappa Lamani, from Goa in a drug case.

Recently the police had arrested another person named Sujay for buying 500 grams of hydro-ganja on the darknet using bitcoins. However, two other accused in the case, Hemant and Suneesh had managed to escape. The police traced them to Goa where the accused were allegedly being sheltered by Darshan Lamani.

A CCB team went to Goa and arrested all the three and their role in the drug racket is being probed, according to Sandeep Patil, joint commissioner of police.
