The police said that with the arrest of these eight accused, a supply chain has been broken down as the group included the manufacturer as well as peddlers who sold Mephedrone directly to consumers.
Lohare and Lalit (34) are among the 22 arrested by Pimpri Chinchwad police in connection with seizure of 20 kg Mephedrone worth Rs 20 crore from Chakan in October 2020.
