Lawyer’s farmhouse raided; 2 arrested
The Anti-Narcotics Cell (ANC) of the Mumbai Police’s Crime Branch has busted a mephedrone manufacturing unit being operated at an advocate’s farmhouse in Maharashtra’s Kolhapur district and arrested two persons, the police said on Wednesday.
The estimated cost of the chemical used in the manufacturing of the banned drug and other equipment is ₹2.35 crore, an officer said.
The farmhouse is owned by advocate Rajkumar Rajhuns who practices in Mumbai and has his own law firm, he said, adding the lawyer was the kingpin of this illicit trade.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
