Kerala Police arrested seven individuals, including an MBBS doctor and a BDS student, in a New Year's Day drug bust in Thiruvananthapuram. The group, which also included an IT professional and two women, was allegedly smuggling MDMA and synthetic drugs from Bengaluru to supply medical professionals and students. Authorities seized MDMA, ganja, and hybrid cannabis, along with vehicles and mobile phones. The arrests followed a previous incident where the suspects evaded capture after ramming a police vehicle.
