The individuals identified as Khalid Rahman, Ashraf Hamza, and their associate Shalif Mohammed were taken into custody after authorities discovered 1.6 grams of the illegal substance.
Khalid Rahman, known for his acclaimed film Manjummel Boys, and Ashraf Hamza, the director behind the successful debut film Thamaasha, were both detained under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. Despite the high-profile nature of the individuals involved, no further illicit substances were found during the investigation.

This incident has sparked discussions in both the film industry and public spheres, with many expressing surprise at the involvement of well-known figures in such a case.
