A 25-year-old youth has been arrested by the Kochi city police with 387.26 gram of suspected MDMA as part of the ongoing State-wide anti-narcotics drive Operation Toofan in Kerala.

Muhammed Sadique, a gym trainer from Edathala in Aluva, was nabbed from an apartment at Vazhakkala by the District Anti-Narcotics Special Action Force on Thursday night, the police said on Friday.

The police also seized ₹66,000 and a bike, allegedly used by the accused for drug peddling. The number plate of the vehicle was allegedly removed, according to the police.

Police sources said the anti-narcotics force zeroed in on Mr. Sadique following a tip-off and that he had been under the police radar for the past few days. The police have found financial transactions to the tune of around ₹10 lakh from his bank account in the past one week. The investigators will be tracing the money trail as part of the probe into alleged drug trafficking.
