After detecting similar cases in Morni and Kalka, Panchkula police have now booked a father-son duo for cultivating opium in Bunga village in Panchkula.
On Friday, police found opium being cultivated illegally in the village and seized 128 opium plants in full bloom, weighing 6.3 kg. The accused had cultivated the plants in barbed plant beds next to vegetables.
The action came following a tip-off that the father-son duo was supplying the opium to different areas. The accused, identified as Krishan and his son Deepi, are at large.
They have been booked under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act at the Chandimandir police station.
