Mumbai: Kannada actor Sanjana Galrani has been detained by the Central Crime Branch (CCB) on Tuesday in connection with the drug menace which has cropped up recently.
The actor is being taken to the CCB office in Bengaluru.
Earlier today, a team of CCB sleuths conducted a raid at Sanjana's residence after obtaining a warrant from the court. Sandeep Patil, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime), Bengaluru, Karnataka, had also put out a statement regarding the same. The officials arrived at the actor's Indiranagar residence around six in the morning and concluded the search operation at 11 am.
Days back, seven members from the CCB including a woman police inspector, raided actor Ragini Dwivedi's flat at Yelahanka in the city's northern suburb with a search warrant from a local court to find out if banned drugs were kept in her house.
