The Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) has arrested three more persons in connection with the seizure of banned mephedrone drug and its raw material worth Rs 478.65 crore in Vadodara, an official said on Friday.

The ATS on Wednesday arrested the accused, who are residents of Vadodara city, for allegedly being part of a racket involved in manufacturing and sale of the banned substance, the official said.

On November 29, 2022, a team of Gujarat ATS raided a small factory-cum-godown near Sindhrot village on the outskirts of Vadodara city and seized a huge cache of mephedrone and its raw material worth Rs 478.65 crore.

According to the probe agency, one of the accused arrested earlier had learnt the process of making narcotic drugs on the 'dark web' and roped in others after setting up the unit near Sindhrot.
