The phone recovered from him had two SIM cards, and an online complaint from Jalgaon, Maharashtra, was registered against one number on the portal. The phone also contained a Facebook account, several suspicious photos and videos, screen recordings of video calls, and screenshots of WhatsApp chats.
The Crime Investigation Agency (CIA) Tawdu arrested Jagmal, son of Fateh Mohammad, a resident of Shikarpur under Sadar Tawdu police station, with 262 grams of heroin. A motorcycle was also recovered.
